Evolve the Monolith to Microservices with Java and Node
Microservices is an architectural style in which large, complex software applications are composed of one or more smaller services. Each of these microservices focuses on completing one task that represents a small business capability. These microservices can be developed in any programming language. This book shows how to break out a traditional Java EE application into separate microservices and provides a set of code projects that illustrate the various steps along the way. The sample projects highlight the evolution of monoliths to microservices with Java and Node. ...

From Containers to Kubernetes with Node.js
This book is designed as an introduction to containers and Kubernetes by way of Node.js. Containers are the basis for distributed, repeatable workflows with orchestrators such as Kubernetes, and they allow developers and operators to develop applications consistently across environments and deploy in a repeatable and predictable fashion. The examples in this book focus on Node.js, a JavaScript runtime, and demonstrate how to develop an application that communicates with a MongoDB backend. Though the chapters of the book cover cumulative topics - from how to develop a stateless application, to adding storage, to containerization - they can also be used as independent guides. Feel free to use the chapters in order, or jump to the discussion that best suits your purpose. ...

Modern Full-Stack Development, 2nd Edition
Explore what React, Node, Python, Django, TypeScript, Webpack, and Docker have to offer individually, and how they all fit together in modern app development. This updated version will show you how to build apps with React, Node.js or Django, and TypeScript, and how Webpack can be used to optimize and organize your code for deployment. You'll begin by building a solid foundation of knowledge and quickly expand it by constructing three different real-world apps. These aren't just simple, contrived examples but real apps that you can choose to install on your servers and use for real. You'll also understand how Docker can be used to run the apps you build in a clear and well-defined way, all of which will be able to springboard you into creating more advanced apps on your own. You'll see why React is one of the most popular web development tools available today, and why Node.js is also frequently used for server-side development. The fact that both utilize JavaScript is a big selli ...

Building Hypermedia APIs with HTML5 and Node
With this concise book, you'll learn the art of building hypermedia APIs that don't simply run on the Web, but that actually exist in the Web. You'll start with the general principles and technologies behind this architectural approach, and then dive hands-on into three fully-functional API examples. Too many APIs rely on concepts rooted in desktop and local area network patterns that don't scale well - costly solutions that are difficult to maintain over time. This book shows system architects and web developers how to design and implement human- and machine-readable web services that remain stable and flexible as they scale. ...
