Quarkus Cookbook

Kubernetes is becoming the de-facto platform to deploy our enterprise Java-based applications. However, this movement also implies some changes in the way we code our applications. Also, you can get in trouble easily if you containerize and run a Java application without taking proper measures. Containers are the basic units in Kubernetes, so it's important to have this process done correctly. In this book, you’ll learn about Quarkus, a Java ecosystem way to develop cloud-first, container-native, serverless-focused and Kubernetes-optimized microservices. Through the course of the book, authors Alex Soto and Jason Porter provide several detailed solutions for installing, interacting with, and using Quarkus in development and production. You’ll learn how to adapt the system to your particular needs and become familiar with how Quarkus works within the wider Java ecosystem. Each standalone chapter features recipes written in O’Reilly’s popular problem-solution-discussion format. Recipes in this cookbook focus on: Enabling live reloading in dev mode, shortening the development cycle Connecting to and communicating with Kafka Developing with Reactive Programming Model Simplifying persistence with Panache Easily adding fault tolerance to your services Gathering metrics for a deployed application Building your application as a k8s ready container Using Quarkus for Amazon Lambda functions Utilizing Spring knowledge Easing development with OpenAPI Enabling security in your services Testing a native Quarkus application
