This book introduces you to cloud-native applications and teaches you how to set up your development environment. You'll learn about the various components of MicroProfile, such as fault tolerance, config, health check, metrics, and JWT auth. You'll develop a RESTful web service made up of some microservices. You'll deploy your application on Docker and Kubernetes.

After reading this book, you'll come away with the fundamentals you need to build and deploy your first cloud-native Java-based app.
