In this tutorial, you'll use JHipster to build a microservice stack and deploy it to Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). The microservices will use Java and Spring Boot for resource servers and Vue for the frontend. The server-side applications will use Spring's Reactive technology stack. The microservice will include multiple…
Read moreWhen it comes to infrastructure, public clouds are the most popular choice these days, especially Amazon Web Services (AWS). If you are in one of those lucky or unlucky (depending on how you see it) teams running microservices, then you need a way to orchestrate their deployments. When it comes…
Read moreMicroservices are not everyone's cup of tea, and they shouldn't be. Not every problem can or should be solved by microservices. Sometimes building a simple monolith is a far better option. Microservices are solutions for use cases where scale and scalability are important. A few years ago, microservices were all…
Read moreCloud adoption continues to increase rapidly worldwide, and not only in the software industry. Every year more and more companies move their applications to the cloud. In the last JHipster community survey, from December 2021, participants valued JHipster's ability to get them to production faster, and requested more tutorials on…
Read moreIn this tutorial, you'll learn how to deploy a JHipster-based reactive microservice to Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). You'll use Azure's Cosmos DB as a persistent store for one of the services. For security, you'll use Okta as an OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider. You'll also securely encrypt all…
Read moreWebAssembly (Wasm) is one of the most exciting and underestimated software technologies invented in recent times. It's a binary instruction format for a stack-based virtual machine that aims to execute at native speeds with a memory-safe and secure sandbox. Wasm is portable, cross-platform, and language-agnostic—designed as a compilation target for…
Read moreKubernetes has become an unavoidable part of a software infrastructure these days. If you are an enterprise or medium/large company, chances are you are already running Kubernetes clusters for your workloads. If you are a DevOps engineer, there is a good chance you are maintaining either an on-prem Kubernetes cluster…
Read moreA Kubernetes (k8s) cluster comprises worker machines called nodes and a control plane consisting of the API server, scheduler, etcd, controller manager, and in the case of a PaaS (platform as a service), the cloud controller manager. The containers deployed to the cluster run in pods on the worker nodes.…
Read moreSince 2013 when it was released to the public, Docker has become an industry-standard tool for development teams to package applications into small executable containers. A year later, Kubernetes was released by Google to manage large amounts of containers, and provide features for high availability (HA) and auto-scaling.
Read moreWhen your business or application is successful, it needs to scale. Not just technology-wise, but human-wise. When you're growing rapidly, it can be difficult to hire developers fast enough. Using a microservices architecture for your apps can allow you to divide up ownership and responsibilities, and scale teams along with…
Read moreIn this tutorial, you're going to use Kubernetes to deploy a Spring Boot microservice architecture to Google Cloud, specifically the Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You're also going to use Istio to create a service mesh layer and to create a public gateway. The whole thing is going to be secured…
Read moreReact Native is a framework for building mobile applications with React. React allows you to use a declarative style of programming to describe how your UI should look. It uses embedded HTML (called JSX) to render buttons, lists, scrollable views, and many other components.
Read moreA lot has happened in the last five years of software development. What it means to build, deploy, and orchestrate software has changed drastically. There's been a move from hosting software on-premise to public cloud and shift from virtual machines (VMs) to containers. Containers are cheaper to run than VMs…
Read moreJHipster is one of those open-source projects you stumble upon and immediately think, "Of course!" It combines three very successful frameworks in web development: Bootstrap, Angular, and Spring Boot. Bootstrap was one of the first dominant web-component frameworks. Its largest appeal was that it only required a bit of HTML…
