《Spring Cloud微服务和分布式系统实践》从企业的真实需求出发，理论结合实际，深入讲解Spring Cloud微服务和分布式系统的知识。书中既包括Spring Cloud微服务的各类常用组件的讲解，又包括分布式系统的常用知识的介绍。Spring Cloud组件方面主要讲解服务注册和服务发现（Eureka）、服务调用（Ribbon和OpenFeign）、断路器（Hystrix和Resilience4j）、网关（Zuul和Gateway）、配置（Config）、全链路追踪（Sleuth）、微服务的监控（Admin）等；分布式系统方面主要讲解分布式数据库、分布式缓存、会话和权限以及发号机制等。本书的实践部分通过Apache Thrift讲解了远程过程调用（RPC）在分布式系统中的应用，并且分析了处理高并发的一些常用方法，最后还通过一个简单的实例讲解了微服务系统的搭建。
本书适合想要学习Spring Cloud微服务、分布式系统开发的各类Java开发人员阅读，包括初学者和开发工程师。本书对架构师也有一定的帮助。

本书全面系统地介绍SpringCloud及其在微服务架构中的应用。全书共13章，第1章介绍微服务架构相关的基本概念；第2章介绍SpringCloud中包含的组件以SpringCloud约定的上下文；第3章介绍SpringCloud的基础：SpringBoot，包括如何构建一个SpringBoot服务、SpringBoot的配置文件和Actuator提供的监控管理端点；第4至第13章详细讲解SpringCloud组件，包括：Eureka（服务注册与发现）、OpenFeign（声明式Restful客户端）、Hystrix（断路器）、Ribbon（客户端负载均衡器）、Gateway（API网关）、Config（配置中心)、Stream（消息驱动）、Bus（消息总线）、Security（认证与授权）、Sleuth（服务链路追踪）。本书为读者揭开了SpringCloud组件实现的技术内幕，并提供了进阶应用的思路，可以作为使用SpringCloud进行微服务架构实践的参考书。

MVC and CRUD make software easier to write, but harder to change. Microservice-based architectures can help even the smallest of projects remain agile in the long term, but most tutorials meander in theory or completely miss the point of what it means to be microservice-based. Roll up your sleeves with real projects and learn the most important concepts of evented architectures. You'll have your own deployable, testable project and a direction for where to go next.
Much ink has been spilled on the topic of microservices, but all of this writing fails to accurately identity what makes a system a monolith, define what microservices are, or give complete, practical examples, so you're probably left thinking they have nothing to offer you. You don't have to be at Google or Facebook scale to benefit from a microservice-based architecture. Microservices will keep even small and medium teams productive by keeping the pieces of your system focused and decoupled.
Discover the basics of message-based architectures, render the same state in different shapes to fit the task at hand, and learn what it is that makes something a monolith (it has nothing to do with how many machines you deploy to). Conserve resources by performing background jobs with microservices. Deploy specialized microservices for registration, authentication, payment processing, e-mail, and more. Tune your services by defining appropriate service boundaries. Deploy your services effectively for continuous integration. Master debugging techniques that work across different services. You'll finish with a deployable system and skills you can apply to your current project.
Add the responsiveness and flexibility of microservices to your project, no matter what the size or complexity.
What You Need:
While the principles of this book transcend programming language, the code examples are in Node.js because JavaScript, for better or worse, is widely read. You'll use PostgreSQL for data storage, so familiarity with it is a plus. The books does provide Docker images to make working with PostgreSQL a bit easier, but extensive Docker knowledge is not required.

The Tao of Microservices guides you on the path to understanding and building microservices. Based on the invaluable experience of microservices guru Richard Rodger, this book exposes the thinking behind microservice designs. You'll master individual concepts like asynchronous messaging, service APIs, and encapsulation as you learn to apply microservices architecture to real-world projects. Along the way, you'll dig deep into detailed case studies with source code and documentation and explore best practices for team development, planning for change, and tool choice.

When not to use microservices

Recent practice in distributed systems has shifted from building and maintaining monolithic applications to breaking monoliths into microservices, but the standardization and best practices for microservice architecture and interaction between microservices remain largely undefined. After breaking apart a monolithic application or building up microservices from scratch, many engineers are left wondering "now what"?In Production-Ready Microservices, author Susan Fowler looks at lessons learned from driving high production-readiness standards across over a thousand microservices. She discusses standards that apply to every microservice, and shares strategies for bringing microservices to a production-ready state. A production-ready microservice, she argues, is one that is stable, reliable, fault-tolerant, scalable, performant, monitored, prepared for any catastrophe, and documented and understood.

Spring Microservices in Action teaches you how to build microservice-based applications using Java and the Spring platform. You'll learn to do microservice design as you build and deploy your first Spring Cloud application. Throughout the book, carefully selected real-life examples expose microservice-based patterns for configuring, routing, scaling, and deploying your services. You'll see how Spring's intuitive tooling can help augment and refactor existing applications with micro services.
