Thank you for reading my newsletter.

Half a year after creating this blog I felt that there was something missing… I enjoy sharing my passion for the JVM ecosystem and software development with You…

Wouldn’t it be nice if someone would gather all the best resources, projects, technologies and everything else related to microservices?

Recently I have been taking a bit of a step back from microservices and trying to look at systems architecture from a more general perspective.

There is great value in simplicity.

Are you really building microservices?

Technical Architect is a job that many people understand differently.

It is hard to believe (mostly for myself) that I have already written 60 articles on this blog.

Three years ago I was looking for a new job.

I have recently been very interested in microframeworks.

I have started studying Computer Science at University more than 10 years ago.

Should I learn Java?

Thank you for reading my newsletter.

Who wouldn’t want to work as a part of a happy and motivated software team?

Together with the growing popularity of microservices and light-weight REST API, we are witnessing another trend in Java: the rise of Java Microframeworks.

Building reactive microservices with WebFlux is fun and easy.

Your company wants to adopt microservices.

Kafka seems to only be gaining in popularity.

Thanks to my company – Scott Logic – I recently had a pleasure of attending the Devoxx UK 2018 conference.

Kafka is becoming a popular addition to microservice oriented architectures.

I feel horrible today.

Writing good software requires using the right tools.

In the last month, I spent a lot of time writing about Reactive Spring Boot.

Spring Data is one of the flagship projects of the Spring ecosystem.

Spring Cloud Data Flow requires quite a few dependencies in order to run it.

Spring Boot 2.0 (and Spring 5) introduced WebFlux as a way to build reactive Microservices.

WebSockets is a technology that enables establishing an interactive connection between the front-end and the service.

Java, Microservices, other JVM languages… Programming, best practices, architecture… Libraries, frameworks, methodologies… I could go on for a while here.

One thing that differentiates microservices architecture from more traditional, monolithic development styles is the number of choices that have to be made.

I have previously written about Getting Reactive with Spring Boot 2.0 and Reactor, where I have given an introduction to reactive programming in Spring Boot.

Reactive programming is gaining a rapid popularity in the JVM community.

Getting work done effectively and efficiently is a goal of most software development teams.

Thank you for reading my newsletter.

One of the new features of Java 9 is the introduction of the Reactive Streams SPI to the JDK.

I have recently been thinking about the importance of humility for software developers.

When building services with Spring Boot we have to deal with concurrency.

Every now and then you read a book that completely changes how you understand something.

Introducing Javalin- a micro-framework for building Simple REST APIs for Java / Kotlin.

It is good to stay “in shape” when it comes to algorithmic coding.

On the 14th of March 2018, I had a pleasure of speaking at the While42 – French Tech Engineers Network event.

Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) is a pattern that causes quite a lot of confusion.

“How do you learn Spring Cloud?”

JSON Binding (JSON-B) is the new Java EE standard for converting JSON messages to Java Objects and back.

Newsletter focusing on Microservices, JVM, Building Teams and other exciting technical stuff that I write on e4developer.

Spring Cloud Data Flow can be used for many things- orchestrating event streams, batch processing, data analytics and more.

Learn how to use Spring Cloud Data Flow Shell and how to create custom Apps.

On the 15th February 2018 I had a pleasure to speak at The JVM Roundabout Meetup in London.

Microservices are linked to the idea of independent teams.

Set up a Spring Cloud Data Flow Server on your local machine.
