Overview of this book

Microservices architecture allows developers to build and maintain applications with ease, and enterprises are rapidly adopting it to build software using Spring Boot as their default framework. With this book, you’ll learn how to efficiently build and deploy microservices using Spring Boot. This microservices book will take you through tried and tested approaches to building distributed systems and implementing microservices architecture in your organization. Starting with a set of simple cooperating microservices developed using Spring Boot, you’ll learn how you can add functionalities such as persistence, make your microservices reactive, and describe their APIs using Swagger/OpenAPI. As you advance, you’ll understand how to add different services from Spring Cloud to your microservice system. The book also demonstrates how to deploy your microservices using Kubernetes and manage them with Istio for improved security and traffic management. Finally, you’ll explore centralized log management using the EFK stack and monitor microservices using Prometheus and Grafana. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build microservices that are scalable and robust using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.

Using Spring Cloud Gateway to Hide Microservices Behind an Edge Server

In this chapter, we will learn how to use Spring Cloud Gateway as an edge server, that is, to control what APIs are exposed from our microservices-based system landscape. We will see how microservices that have public APIs will be made accessible from the outside through the edge server, while microservices that have private APIs only will be accessible from the inside of the microservice landscape. In our system landscape, this means that the product composite service and the discovery service, Netflix Eureka, will be exposed through the edge server. The three core services—product, recommendation, and review—will be hidden from the outside.

The following topics will be covered in this chapter:

  • Adding an edge server to our system landscape
  • Setting up a Spring Cloud...
