Is microservice architecture right for your organization? Microservices have many benefits, but they also come with their own set of drawbacks. With this updated edition, Java developers and architects will learn how to navigate popular application frameworks such Spring Boot and MicroProfile to deploy and manage microservices at scale with Linux containers. This hands-on, example-driven guide provides step-by-step instructions to help you get started.
