Microservices with Spring and Cloud Foundry by Alain Sahli, mimacom

Cloud Foundry allows developers to deploy easily and often their applications. This is a great thing but it is only a part of the whole picture. In order to smoothly scale an application some patterns and basic architecture concepts must be taken into consideration. With Spring Boot, applications can be split into smaller parts called Microservices, which can be scaled in a more fine-grained manner. In addition Spring Cloud provides tools to quickly build some of the common patterns in distributed systems (e.g. configuration management, service discovery, circuit breakers). Based on a presentation and demo, in this Meetup you will learn how to build resilient applications with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.

Bio Alain Sahli

Alain Sahli is lead software developer at mimacom ag in Bern. He has several years of experience with the Spring IO platform and is a core committer in the Spring Cloud AWS project. Part of his job is to stay up to date with emerging technologies and test them. Lately he has put his attention to Cloud Foundry as it offers a nice playground to experiment the different cloud patterns provided by the Spring Cloud umbrella project.

Spring Data, Hypermedia and the Cloud by Christoph Strobl

Deep dive into Spring Data for both relational and non relational data access using JPA and MongoDB. The liaison with Spring Data REST gets you straight to hypermedia and lets you expose your data as a REST resource. We'll step by step walk through samples and get you ready for the cloud.

Bio Christoph Strobl

As part of the engineering team at Pivotal Software Inc., Christoph Strobl maintains and contributes mainly to the Spring Data modules around Redis, MongoDB and Solr. He is keen about all Data Access and has a passion about design and testing.
