The open-source Helidon framework provides all that, and more. It’s based on Java 17, giving you full access to new code features. This book reveals how Helidon also supports modern enterprise Java standards such as MicroProfile. Plus, you'll see how Helidon lets you use GraalVM to build lightning-fast native executables, and its unique reactive layer allows you to develop efficient low-level APIs.
Each chapter in the book teaches a new Helidon concept through practical examples based on real-life use-cases. You’ll learn how to add observability and security to your microservices, how to work with databases, and call other services. You'll also look at all MicroProfile 5.0 platform specifications aswell as some stand-alone specs such as Messaging and Long Running Actions. Best of all, everything covered in this book makes it a great study guide for the upcoming Oracle Helidon certification - the perfect way to prove your new skills to a prospective employer!
What You'll Learn
• Package microservices using JLink and GraalVM
• Deploy microservices to Kubernetes
• Review MicroProfile 5.0 specifications in detail
• Understand the basics of Helidon Reactive APIs
