Learn RESTful API design with Java, covering everything from fundamental design principles to advanced techniques for authentication, versioning, error handling, security, testing, performance, and more
Key Features
• Discover essential architectural principles for building robust and adaptable REST APIs
• Gain practical insights into tuning performance and securing endpoints through real-world case studies
• Apply API design concepts to build fully functional services using popular frameworks like Spring Boot
REST powers the modern web, yet developers grapple with architectural missteps that lead to poorly designed REST endpoints, inadequate error handling, security vulnerabilities, and maintenance headaches. Written by five software engineering and Java experts, Mastering RESTful Web Services with Java helps you overcome these pitfalls with a deep, practical understanding of REST architecture, HTTP protocols, and modern API design principles.
This hands-on guide introduces foundational concepts based on Roy Fielding’s principles and the Richardson Maturity Model and shows you how to apply them in your API development projects. You’ll build a Product API from scratch, progressively enhancing it with documentation, versioning, and security features, and then advance to creating an Order Management API that interacts with the Product API, while implementing advanced testing and performance optimization techniques. Each chapter delivers step-by-step explanations and practical examples, ensuring you develop production-ready skills that translate directly to your daily work.
By the end of the book, you’ll be ready to deliver production-grade RESTful services and become the API expert your team turns to for critical application development projects.
