Introducing a hands-on technical deep dive on Liberty
We are excited to announce the release of our newest tutorial, A Technical Deep Dive on Liberty.
A Technical Deep Dive on Liberty is an end-to-end tutorial that walks you through how to develop and deploy cloud-native Java applications in Jakarta EE and MicroProfile. The tutorial is aimed at Java developers, from Liberty novices to those more experienced with writing applications to run on Liberty.
In A Technical Deep Dive on Liberty, you will learn how to:
-
Build a RESTful microservice on Liberty with Jakarta EE and MicroProfile.
-
Easily document your REST API for developers to consume your microservice.
-
Externalize your configuration to make your application portable and easier to update.
-
Persist data to a database.
-
Secure your application using JSON Web Tokens (JWT) so that only authenticated and authorized applications can request information from your microservice.
-
Add health checks to easily report the statuses of your microservice (for orchestration decision).
-
Provide metrics to monitor activity and performance of your application.
-
Build a container image for your Java microservice.
-
Deploy the container image to Kubernetes using the Open Liberty Operator.
-
Test your applications easily with containers (for true-to-production testing).
If you don’t want to worry about local setup and prerequisites, try A Technical Deep Dive on Liberty in our cloud-hosted environment.
Alternatively, if you prefer, you can complete A Technical Deep Dive on Liberty on your own laptop.
