Synopsis:

Learn the fundamentals of Java EE 8 APIs to build effective web services

Key Features:

- Design modern and stylish web services with Java EE APIs

- Secure your web services with JSON Web Tokens

- Explore the advanced concepts of RESTful web services and the JAX-RS API

Book Description:

Java Enterprise Edition is one of the leading application programming platforms for enterprise Java development. With Java EE 8 finally released and the first application servers now available; it is time to take a closer look at how to develop modern and lightweight web services with the latest API additions and improvements.Building RESTful Web Services with Java EE 8 is a comprehensive guide that will show you how to develop state-of-the-art RESTful web services with the latest Java EE 8 APIs. You will begin with an overview of Java EE 8 and the latest API additions and improvements. You will then delve into the details of implementing synchronous RESTful web services and clients with JAX-RS. Next up; you will learn about the specifics of data binding and content marshalling using the JSON-B 1.0 and JSON-P 1.1 APIs.

This book also guides you in leveraging the power of asynchronous APIs on the server and client side; and you will learn to use server-sent events (SSEs) for push communication. The final section covers advanced web service topics such as validation; JWT security; and diagnosability.

By the end of this book; you will have implemented several working web services and have a thorough understanding of the Java EE 8 APIs required for lightweight web service development.

What You Will Learn:

- Dive into the latest Java EE 8 APIs relevant for developing web services

- Use the new JSON-B APIs for easy data binding

- Understand how JSON-P API can be used for flexible processing

- Implement synchronous and asynchronous JAX-RS clients

- Use server-sent events to implement server-side code

- Secure Java EE 8 web services with JSON Web Tokens

Who this book is for:

If you're a Java developer who wants to learn how to implement web services using the latest Java EE 8 APIs; this book is for you. Though no prior knowledge of Java EE 8 is required; experience with a previous Java EE version will be beneficial.
