Magazine manager MicroProfile tutorial

What is this tutorial about

This tutorial will allow you to explore the full potential of MicroProfile through a step by step development of a small Microservice based JavaEE web application .

What is a MicroProfile?

The MicroProfile is an initiative that is supported by many people from the Java EE community, as well as key Enterprise Java vendors IBM, RedHat, Tomitribe, and Payara.

The MicroProfile is currently defined to be a very small, but powerful, subset of the Java EE 7 specifications. The initially planned baseline is:

• JAX-RS

• CDI

• JSON-P

with the intent of community having an active role in the MicroProfile definition and roadmap.

Version 1.2 now includes:

• Health Check 1.0

• Metrics 1.0

• Fault Tolerance 1.0

• JWT Propagation 1.0

• updated Config 1.1

in addition to:

• CDI 1.2

• JSON-P 1.0

• JAX-RS 2.0.
