Mastering Spring Boot Actuator production ready features

Integrating Prometheus & Graphite with Grafana, using Spring Boot Admin Dashboard

What you'll learn

• All about actuator production-ready features
• Integrating actuator with Prometheus and Grafana for metrics
• Integrating actuator with Graphite and Grafana for metrics
• Implementing custom HealthIndicators
• Using Spring Boot Admin Dashboard

Requirements

• Basic knowledge about Spring ecosystem (3.1)
• Basic knowledge about docker, docker-compose

Description

Do you use spring-boot-actuator only for health checks? What a pity!

Monitoring our app, gathering metrics, understanding traffic, or the state of our database become trivial with actuator.

Many developers do not fathom the hidden gems in the used tech stack just scraping the surface.

You should reconsider it and leverage the tremendous amount of opportunities actuator provides for you including intriguing metrics, premade grafana dashsboards, codecentric admin dashboard, listed initialized beans, usage of integrationgraph, custom metrics and health ckecks, database schema management tool steps logging, etc.

This course will deep-dive into the details of actuator.

- What is actuator really?
- How to migrate your application between version 1.x, 2.x and 3.x of spring boot regarding actuator.
- Discuss endpoints one-by-one with examples for using all of them.
- Integrating it with prometheus and graphite using grafana as a UI for metrics
- Integrating it with spring-boot-admin dependencies for Admin Dashboard provided by codecentric.
- Examples of the usage of spring-boot-actuator.

This course is not intended for teaching you the basis of spring and spring-boot.

This course is the most up-to-date on actuator:

- java 17
- spring boot 3.1. with using spring-boot-docker-compose dependency to automatically handle docker-compose services

What will you learn:

- using docker-compose services with spring-boot-docker-compose dependency
- integrating prometheus and grafana with actuator
- graphite and grafana with actuator
- spring-boot-admin dashboard usage
- tricks to use IntellijIDEA

Who this course is for:

For Java Developers who want mastering tools that they're using day by day. It's a deep dive with debugging the actuator code itself as well, integrating actuator with prometheus, graphite and spring boot admin.
