In my old 6h workshop (before Spring Framework 5 introduced reactive support, Spring Boot 2.0 and Spring Cloud Finchley) i would cover:
- REST (servlet)
- data access (JPA + H2)
- observability w/ actuator
- service registration & discovery
- client side load balancing w/ Eureka
- reliability patterns w/ circuit breakers
- eventual consistency / messaging w/ Spring Cloud Stream and RabbitMQ
- REST clients w/ RestTemplate abd Feign
- distributed tracing w/ Sleuth Stream + ZIpkin Stream Server
- Circuit Breaker dashboard (w/ no turbine)
- SSO w/ Spring Cloud Security
- microservice testing w/ Spring Cloud Contract
- Java
- edge services /microproxies/api gateways w Zuul
Now, in 2018, everything is bigger and better!
in my new 6h workshop (after reactive and Finchley) i will cover:
- REST (reactive w/ WebFlux)
- data access (reactive w/ MongoDB or R2DBC)
- observability w/ actuator (still works, but its micrometer)
- service registration & discovery w/ Consul
- client side load balancing w/ Consul
- reliability patterns w/ circuit breakers (works but now im using
HystrixCommands and adapting a Publisher<T>)
- eventual consistency / messaging w/ Spring Cloud Stream and Kakfa
- REST clients w/ WebClient (Feign doesnt work; any alternatives? Does the stuff from Square work yet?)
- distributed tracing w/ Zipkin client and Kafka
- Circuit Breaker dashboard (w/ Turbine - havent tried this yet)
- SSO w/ Spring Cloud Security (whts this look like w/ Spring Security 5 and OIDC support)
- microservice testing w/ Spring Cloud Contract (i havent tries this yet in a reactive world)
- Kotlin
- edge services /microproxies/api gateways w Spring Cloud Gateay
- RSocket.io
