Reseña del libro "Spring Boot 4 Microservices Engineering (en Inglés)"
Building real backend systems can feel overwhelming when tutorials jump too quickly from "Hello World" to databases, security, microservices, messaging, containers, and cloud deployment. Spring Boot 4 Microservices Engineering gives you a clearer path.Designed for Java developers who are new to Spring Boot, backend engineering, or microservices, this practical guide walks you through the process one manageable step at a time. You do not need previous experience with Spring Security, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, or distributed systems. Basic familiarity with Java is helpful, and every major Spring and backend concept is introduced progressively.Instead of disconnected examples, you build one evolving commerce and fulfillment platform and gradually transform it into a secure, persistent, event-driven, observable, tested, and deployable distributed system.Key FeaturesStep-by-step explanations that break complex backend concepts into manageable stagesPractical Java and Spring Boot 4 examples built around a real projectProduction-focused REST API development, persistence, security, testing, and deploymentHands-on coverage of PostgreSQL, JPA, Hibernate, OAuth2, JWT, gRPC, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, and observabilityPractical exercises that reinforce each chapterClear explanations of common failures, troubleshooting, and why engineering decisions matterA learning approach that treats mistakes as part of the process and builds confidence through small, working improvementsWhat You Will LearnYou will learn how to: Build structured Spring Boot applications with clear architectural boundariesDesign, validate, document, and test production-ready REST APIsPersist data safely with PostgreSQL, Spring Data JPA, Hibernate, and migrationsSecure APIs with Spring Security, OAuth2, OpenID Connect, JWT, roles, and permissionsDesign and decompose microservices with clear service and data ownershipCommunicate between services using HTTP, gRPC, and Apache KafkaHandle retries, idempotency, eventual consistency, circuit breakers, and failure scenariosAdd structured logging, metrics, health checks, and distributed tracingTest realistic infrastructure with integration and contract testingContainerize services with Docker and deploy them with KubernetesWho This Book Is ForThis book is ideal for Java developers, students, self-learners, and aspiring backend engineers who want to move beyond basic tutorials and understand how modern services are actually designed, secured, tested, observed, and deployed. It is especially suitable for readers new to Spring Boot or microservices who want a practical, confidence-building path toward production-ready backend development.Table of ContentsEngineering Modern Applications with Spring Boot 4Building Production-Grade REST APIsPersistence and Transaction Management with PostgreSQLSecuring Spring Boot APIs and ServicesDesigning and Decomposing MicroservicesSynchronous Communication Between ServicesEvent-Driven Microservices with Apache KafkaResilience and Observability in Distributed SystemsTesting Spring Boot MicroservicesDocker, Kubernetes, and Production ReadinessIf you are ready to stop following isolated tutorials and start building reliable Java backend systems with confidence, Spring Boot 4 Microservices Engineering gives you the practical roadmap. Start with the first service, build one capability at a time, and turn each small win into real backend engineering skill.
