In this article, we'll look into Spring Boot Actuator, which provides built-in production ready endpoints that can be used for monitoring and controlling your application.
Monitoring applications may include something as simple as knowing the Health and Info to some complex data like understanding Traffic and Metrics for our
Monitoring an application's health and metrics helps us manage it better, notice unoptimized behavior and get closer to its performance. This especially holds true when we're developing a system with many microservices, where monitoring each service can prove to be crucial when it comes to maintaining our system.

Uploading files to a website isn't an uncommon task, but it also isn't very straightforward to achieve. Some use-cases for why you'd want to upload a file to a website includes services that offer online file conversions and photo sharing websites. In certain applications, we might even want to
In this article, we'll introduce you to Spring Cloud Contract, which is Spring's response to Consumer-Driven Contracts.
Nowadays, applications are thoroughly tested - whether it be unit tests, integration tests, or end-to-end tests. It's very common in a microservice architecture that a service (consumer) communicates with another service (producer
In this article, we'll introduce you to Spring Cloud Sleuth, which is a distributed tracing framework for a microservice architecture in the Spring ecosystem.
In a typical microservice architecture we have many small applications deployed separately and they often need to communicate with each other. One of the challenges
In this article, we'll introduce you to Spring Cloud Stream, which is a framework for building message-driven microservice applications that are connected by a common messaging brokers like RabbitMQ, Apache Kafka, etc.
Spring Cloud Stream is built on top of existing Spring frameworks like Spring Messaging and Spring Integration
In this article, we'll introduce you to Spring Cloud Netflix Turbine. It aggregates multiple Hystrix Metrics Streams into one, so that it could be displayed into a single dashboard view.
To give a small introduction to Hystrix. In a microservice architecture, we have many small applications that talk to
In this article, we'll introduce you to Spring Cloud Netflix Hystrix. It is a fault tolerance library, which implements the Circuit Breaker enterprise pattern - a pattern designed to prevent cascading failures.
In a typical microservice architecture we have many small applications running separately. It's quite common that one
