Workshop Guide for RESTful Java Web Applications with Spring Boot

1. Java Development
RESTful API with
SPRING BOOT

2. 01 Spring
Boot
Goals

3. Fast quick start experience
• Provide a radically faster and widely accessible getting
started experience for all Spring development.

4. Convention Over Configuration
• Be opinionated out of the box, but get out of the way
quickly as requirements start to diverge from the defaults.
Reference: [1] http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/1.2.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT/reference/htmlsingle/#boot-documentation

5. Non-functional features
• Provide a range of non-functional features that are common
to large classes of projects (e.g. embedded servers,
security, metrics, health checks, externalized configuration).
Reference: [1] http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/1.2.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT/reference/htmlsingle/#boot-documentation

6. No required XML configuration
• Absolutely no code generation and no requirement for XML
configuration.

9. Easy build tooling
Reference: [1] http://projects.spring.io/spring-boot/
• Provide opinionated 'starter' POMs to simplify your Maven
and Gradle configurations

10. Default Embedded Servers
Reference: [1] http://projects.spring.io/spring-boot/
• Embed Tomcat
• Jetty
• Undertow directly
• …no need to deploy WAR files

Externalized configuration
with runtime override
Metrics and Health Check
