MicroProfile: microservices made easy

on YouTube ↗42m

" summary

MicroProfile bundles 12 practical specs and ships rapid releases (six in 2.5 years) to make Java microservices opinionated and runnable. Examples include config hot-reload via MicroProfile Config 1.3, a machine-readable /health JSON health endpoint, metrics exposed at /metrics and scraped by Prometheus with Grafana dashboards, type-safe JAX‑RS RestClient, JWT auth requiring sub and groups, OpenTracing with Jaeger/Zipkin, and fault tolerance annotations (timeout retry fallback circuit‑breaker bulkhead) demonstrated end-to-end.
