Java Enterprise Applications

This book is for Java developers who want to learn about Hibernate. It provides a clear introduction to the current standard for object-relational persistence in Java.

This book is meant to cover Java persistence, that is, storing stuff in the Java programming language to a persistent storage medium. Specifically using the Java Persistence API (JPA) to store Java objects to relational databases.

This book covers Spring Framework from basic to advanced, including Spring MVC,, Spring JPA, Spring IoC container, Spring AOP and AspectJ, Spring data access support, Spring transaction management, Spring Web and Portlet MVC, Spring testing support, Spring support for remoting, EJB, JMS, JMX, Email, scheduling, and scripting languages. This book also introduces several common Spring Portfolio projects that will bring significant value to your application development, including Spring Security, Spring Web Flow, and Spring Web Services.

It is important in our fast-paced world to be able to prototype quickly, but also to ensure that you are not doing any wasted work.

Apply microservices patterns to build resilient and scalable distributed systems. Build and deploy Java microservices using Spring Cloud, Istio, and Kubernetes. This book will take you through tried and tested approaches to building distributed systems and implementing microservices architecture in your organization.

Understanding how transaction management works in Java and developing an effective transaction design strategy can help to avoid data integrity problems in your applications and databases and ease the pain of inevitable system failures.

Almost every chapter of the book has been reworked for changes to Spring Boot 3. A significant change was made to the implementation of security. The book now uses Keycloak as an authorization server, a free and open-source alternative, although the principles explained are also useful with other platforms
