Deploying Spring Boot Applications (Paperback)

Paperback. Book DescriptionMove your Spring Boot application beyond "it works on my machine" and into a secure, repeatable, production-ready environment.Building a successful Spring Boot application is only the beginning. It must also be packaged correctly, configured securely, deployed consistently, monitored continuously, and recoverable when something goes wrong.Deploying Spring Boot Applications provides a practical, end-to-end guide to turning a tested Java application into a reliable production service. Using the connected Spring Store project, you will follow the complete release journey-from reproducible Maven builds and executable JARs to secure container images, automated CI/CD pipelines, cloud platforms, Kubernetes, observability, and disaster recovery.Rather than presenting one hosting platform as the answer to every project, this book explains when to use a Linux server, a managed container platform, or Kubernetes-and what operational responsibilities remain with your team in each environment.Inside, you will learn how to: Prepare Spring Boot applications for real production environmentsManage profiles, external configuration, credentials, and JWT signing keysRun safe PostgreSQL migrations with FlywayBuild traceable executable JARs and layered archivesUse AOT processing, CDS, CRaC, and GraalVM native images appropriatelyCreate secure multi-stage Docker images and Cloud Native Buildpack imagesGenerate SBOMs, checksums, signatures, and build provenanceBuild CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, protected environments, and OIDCPerform rolling, blue-green, and canary releasesVerify deployments and recover through rollback or roll-forward strategiesRun Spring Boot through Linux, systemd, Nginx, domains, and TLSDeploy containers with managed PostgreSQL and private cloud networkingConfigure Kubernetes Deployments, Services, Ingress, ConfigMaps, and SecretsAdd startup, readiness, and liveness probes with graceful shutdownSet resource requests, limits, and Horizontal Pod AutoscalingManage environments with Kustomize and understand where Helm fitsMonitor applications with Actuator, Micrometer, Prometheus, and OpenTelemetryDesign dashboards, actionable alerts, and service-level objectivesHarden production workloads through least privilege and secure patchingBuild incident-response, backup, restore, and disaster-recovery proceduresThis book emphasizes a critical production principle: a successful build does not prove that an application is ready, and a successful deployment does not prove that users can complete important operations.By the final chapter, you will understand how source control, automated testing, Maven, Docker, CI/CD, PostgreSQL, Flyway, cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, logs, metrics, traces, alerts, backups, and recovery work together as one dependable release system.Ideal for Spring Boot developers, Java backend engineers, DevOps learners, and technical teams ready to move from application development into professional production operations.Build once. Deploy consistently. Observe continuously. Recover confidently. This item is printed on demand.
