Let's go back to the previous chapter for a moment. There I have already described in detail the structure of a Spring Boot project. Configuration should be provided in YAML or a properties file with the application or the application-{profile} name. In contrast to a standard Spring Boot application, Spring Cloud is based on the configuration taken from a remote server. However, minimal settings are needed inside the application; for example, its name and config server address. That's why a Spring Cloud application creates a bootstrap context, which is responsible for loading properties from the external sources. Bootstrap properties are added with the highest priority and they cannot be overridden by local configuration. Bootstrap context, which is a parent for the main application context, uses bootstrap.yml instead of application...

Overview of this book
Developing, deploying, and operating cloud applications should be as easy as local applications. This should be the governing principle behind any cloud platform, library, or tool. Spring Cloud–an open-source library–makes it easy to develop JVM applications for the cloud. In this book, you will be introduced to Spring Cloud and will master its features from the application developer's point of view.
This book begins by introducing you to microservices for Spring and the available feature set in Spring Cloud. You will learn to configure the Spring Cloud server and run the Eureka server to enable service registration and discovery. Then you will learn about techniques related to load balancing and circuit breaking and utilize all features of the Feign client. The book now delves into advanced topics where you will learn to implement distributed tracing solutions for Spring Cloud and build message-driven microservice architectures. Before running an application on Docker container s, you will master testing and securing techniques with Spring Cloud.
