Learn Jakarta EE by building real-world microservices with code examples, practical exercises, and the latest Jakarta EE features Key Features Craft microservices using standard Jakarta EE technologies such as Jakarta RESTful Web Services, JSON Processing, and JSON Binding Design web-based applications with Jakarta Faces Harness Jakarta EE technologies such as Jakarta Enterprise Beans and Jakarta Messaging to build enterprise applications Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook Book DescriptionJakarta EE stands as a robust standard with multiple implementations, presenting developers with a versatile toolkit for building enterprise applications. However, despite the advantages of enterprise application development, vendor lock-in remains a concern for many developers, limiting flexibility and interoperability across diverse environments. This Jakarta EE application development guide addresses the challenge of vendor lock-in by offering comprehensive coverage of the major Jakarta EE APIs and goes beyond the basics to help you develop applications deployable on any Jakarta EE compliant runtime. This book introduces you to JSON Processing and JSON Binding and shows you how the Model API and the Streaming API are used to process JSON data. You’ll then explore additional Jakarta EE APIs, such as WebSocket and Messaging, for loosely coupled, asynchronous communication and discover ways to secure applications with the Jakarta EE Security API. Finally, you'll learn about Jakarta RESTful web service development and techniques to develop cloud-ready microservices in Jakarta EE. By the end of this book, you'll have developed the skills to craft secure, scalable, and cloud-native microservices that solve modern enterprise challenges.What you will learn Design microservices architectures with a clear separation of concerns Understand the contexts and dependency injection (CDI) specification to develop Java EE applications Use Jakarta Faces to create interactive web applications using component-based development Understand the steps involved in handling JSON data with Jakarta JSON Processing and Binding Design secure RESTful web services using server-sent events (SSE) for real-time data updates Secure your applications with the Jakarta Security API Build message-driven applications with Jakarta Messaging Who this book is forThis book is for Java developers looking to learn Jakarta EE and expand their skill set. You’ll also find this book useful if you are familiar with Java EE and want to stay abreast of the latest version of the Jakarta EE specification. Knowledge of core Java concepts such as OOP, data types, control flow, and basic collections will be beneficial.

Develop, configure, and deploy Java cloud-native applications using Payara Micro. This book demystifies Java cloud-native application development using standard Microprofile APIs and covers Payara-specific features such as automatic clustering and application initialization performance improvements. You will learn how to improve startup performance by taking advantage of class data sharing, and configure cloud-native applications via standard development tools such as Maven and Gradle. The book also clarifies how to develop functionality necessary in a cloud environment, such as health checks and request tracing, using MicroProfile APIs. The book begins by showing how to develop microservices using RESTful web services, followed by how to create microservice clients using MicroProfile and the REST client API. Dependency Injection via Jakarta Context and Dependency Injection (CDI) is also covered. Various approaches to application configuration are covered as well, including property files, environment variables, and system properties. You will learn to configure fault tolerance and high availability, generate system and custom application metrics, and generate health checks to automatically improve overall application health. You will know how to trace the flow of a request across service boundaries with OpenTracing. You will be able to make future maintenance easily through generating documentation, including how to automatically update documentation as your code is updated. Additionally, you will learn how to secure cloud applications and to automatically cluster applications and improve application startup performance.What You Will LearnDevelop microservices using standard Java APIsImplement cloud functionality such as request tracing and health checksDeploy applications as thin archives and as uber archivesConfigure applications via Maven and GradleGenerate custommetrics for capacity planning and proactive discovery of issuesImplement features in support of high availability and fault toleranceSecure your applications with Jason Web TokensTake advantage of Payara’s own cloud platform for easy deploymentWho This Book Is ForJava developers who wish to develop cloud-native applications and microservices, and Java EE application developers who wish to transition to developing cloud-native applications that are lightweight and easily deployed

You are expected to have some experience with Java and to have developed and deployed applications in the past, but you don't need any previous knowledge of Java EE. What You Will Learn • Develop and deploy Java EE applications • Embrace the latest additions to the Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) specification to develop Java EE applications • Develop web-based applications by utilizing the latest version of JavaServer Faces, JSF 2.3. • Understand the steps needed to process JSON data with JSON-P and the new JSON-B Java EE API • Implement RESTful web services using the new JAX-RS 2.1 API, which also includes support for Server-Sent Events (SSE) and the new reactive client API In Detail Java EE is an Enterprise Java standard. Applications written to comply with the Java EE specification do not tie developers to a specific vendor; instead they can be deployed to any Java EE compliant application server. With this book, you'll get all the tools and techniques you need to build robust and scalable applications in Java EE 8. This book covers all the major Java EE 8 APIs including JSF 2.3, Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.2, Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) 2.0, the Java API for WebSockets, JAX-RS 2.1, Servlet 4.0, and more. The book begins by introducing you to Java EE 8 application development and goes on to cover all the major Java EE 8 APIs. It goes beyond the basics to develop Java EE applications that can be deployed to any Java EE 8 compliant application server. It also introduces advanced topics such as JSON-P and JSON-B, the Java APIs for JSON processing, and the Java API for JSON binding.
