Java Spring Boot Learn how Java Spring Boot simplifies development of web applications and microservices with Java Spring Framework. What is Java Spring Boot? htpshwwacibe,‘27302020 What is ava Spring Boot? | 186 Java Spring Framework (Spring Framework) is a popular, open source, enterprise- level framework for creating standalone, production-grade applications that run on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Java Spring Boot (Spring Boot) is a tool that makes developing web application and microservices with Spring Framework faster and easier through three core capabilities: 1. Autoconfiguration 2. An opinionated approach to configuration Site feedback 3. The ability to create standalone applications These features work together to provide you with a tool that allows you to set up a Spring-based application with minimal configuration and setup. Why is Spring Framework so popular? Spring Framework offers a dependency injection feature that lets objects define their own dependencies that the Spring container later injects into them. This enables developers to create modular applications consisting of loosely coupled components that are ideal for microservices and distributed network applications. Spring Framework also offers built-in support for typical tasks that an application needs to perform, such as data binding, type conversion, validation, exception handling, resource and event management, internationalization, and more. It integrates with various Java EE technologies such as RMI (Remote Method Invocation), AMQP (Advanced Message Queuing Protocol), Java Web Services, and others. In sum, Spring Framework provides developers with all the tools and features the need to create loosely coupled, cross-platform Java EE applications that run in any environment. What Spring Boot adds to Spring Framework Let's talk hitpshwwubr,comielaudtearn/ava-sprng-boot aa‘29072020 What is ava Spring Boot? | 186 As capable and comprehensive as Spring Framework is, it still requires significant time and knowledge to configure, set up, and deploy Spring applications. Spring Boot mitigates this effort with three important capabilities. Autoconfiguration Autoconfiguration means that applications are initialized with pre-set dependencies that you don't have to configure manually. As Java Spring Boot comes with built-in autoconfiguration capabilities, it automatically configures both the underlying Spring Framework and third-party packages based on your settings (and based on best practices, which helps avoid errors). Even though you can override these defaults once the initialization is complete, Java Spring Boots autoconfiguration feature enables you to start developing your Spring-based applications fast and reduces the possibility of human errors. Opinionated approach Spring Boot uses an opinionated approach to adding and configuring starter dependencies, based on the needs of your project. Following its own judgment, Spring Boot chooses which packages to install and which default values to use, rather than requiring you to make all those dec manually. ns yourself and set up everything You can define the needs of your project during the initialization process, during which you choose among multiple starter dependencies—called Spring Starters—that cover typical use cases. You run Spring Boot Initializr by filling out a simple web form, without any coding. For example, the ‘Spring Web’ starter dependency allows you to build Spring-based web applications with minimal configuration by adding all the necessary dependencies—such as the Apache Tomcat web server—to your project. ‘Spring Security’ is another popular starter dependency that automatically adds authentication and access-control features to your application Spring Boot includes over 50 Spring Starters, and many more third-party starters are available. Standalone applications Spring Boot helps developers create applications that just run. Specifically, it lets yor create standalone applications that run on their own, without relying on an external hitpshwwubr,comielaudtearn/ava-sprng-boot Site feedback‘29072020 What is ava Spring Boot? | 186 web server, by embedding a web server such as Tomcat or Netty into your app during the initialization process. As a result, you can launch your application on any platform by simply hitting the Run command, (You can opt out of this feature to build applications without an embedded Web server.) Spring Boot vs. Spring Framework Again, the biggest advantages of using Spring Boot versus Spring Framework alone are ease of use and faster development. In theory, this comes at the expense of the greater flexibility you get from working directly with Spring Framework. Site feedback But, in practice, unless you need or want to implement a very unique configuration, using Spring Booth is worth the tradeoff. You still are able to use Spring Framework’s very popular annotation system that lets you easily inject extra dependencies (not covered by Spring Starters) into your application. And, you still get access to all Spring Framework features, including easy event handling, validation, data binding, type conversion, and built-in security and testing capabilities. Bottom line, if your project’s scope is covered by even just one Spring Starter, Spring Boot can significantly streamline development. Spring Boot tutorials If you're looking for fast, easy, entry-level Spring Boot instruction, you're in luck. The web is chock full of “getting started” Spring Boot tutorials, including the following two: — Building an Application with Spring Boot (link resides outside IBM): Build a simple Web application with an embedded Tomcat server in 15 minutes. — Spring Boot Basics: A somewhat longer tutorial that covers more Spring Boot features in greater detail (and includes a video) For scores of other tutorials, just search Google for “Spring Boot Tutorial.” Let’s talk hitpshwwubr,comielaudtearn/ava-sprng-boot an1213072020 What is Java Spring Boot? | BM Spring Boot and IBM Cloud Java Spring Boot eliminates configuration worries to help you to quickly get enterprise applications running—a major consideration particularly when modernizing applications on a larger journey to cloud. Both Java Spring Boot and IBM Cloud are optimized for distributed cloud applications. While Java Spring Boot helps you modularize apps and connect them to third-party services running in the cloud, IBM Cloud is a hybrid cloud platform where you can seamlessly run your modular apps on private and public cloud platforms and on-premises data centers. The Spring Starters below let you easily enrich your applications with IBM Cloud services: — See how to add IBM Watson AI services to applications using Spring Boot Starter for Watson (link resides outside IBM). — Learn about adding Cloudant NoSQL database services to applications using Cloudant Spring Boot Starter (link resides outside IBM). - Explore how to add App ID authentication and authorization services to applications with App ID Spring Boot Starter (ink resides outside IBM).
