Mastering gRPC Using Spring Boot: Build Scalable APIs with Modern RPC-From Scratch to Production (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798299286632)

Are you ready to take your backend development skills to the next level? gRPC is rapidly becoming the standard for building fast, efficient, and language-agnostic APIs-and when combined with the power of Spring Boot, you can deliver production-ready services with ease.

This practical guide walks you step by step through mastering gRPC in real-world scenarios. From defining Protobuf contracts to securing endpoints, testing with confidence, and deploying to Kubernetes, this book equips you with everything you need to build modern distributed systems.

• How to define Protobuf contracts and generate gRPC stubs in Java

• Implement unary, server-streaming, client-streaming, and bidirectional calls

• Secure services with TLS, mTLS, and JWT/OAuth2 interceptors

• Write unit and integration tests with JUnit, grpcurl, and Testcontainers

• Monitor and trace services with Micrometer, OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, and Grafana

• Package and deploy gRPC applications with Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines

Java developers, architects, and backend engineers who want to modernize their APIs, master gRPC concepts, and gain hands-on skills for production-ready systems. Whether you're new to gRPC or migrating from REST, this book has you covered.
