Spring Cloud Tutorials – Introduction to Spring Cloud Config Server

Problem

SpringBoot provides lot of flexibility in externalizing configuration properties via properties or YAML files. We can also configure properties for each environment (dev, qa, prod etc) separately using profile specific configuration files such as application.properties, application-dev.properties, application-prod.properties etc. But once the application is started we can not update the properties at runtime. If we change the properties we need to restart the application to use the updated configuration properties.

My Life as a Software Developer in India

I am Siva, working as a Software Developer in Hyderabad, India. Working as a Software Developer is very exciting as you see new things coming in everyday. If there are no new things at least we put a new fancy name to some old concept and celebrate (#microservices) :-). But in my opinion working as a Software Developer in India is little bit different and hard too. Few things are good, and few things are bad.

MyBatis Tutorial : Part4 – Spring Integration

MyBatis-Spring is a sub-project of MyBatis and provides Spring integration support which drastically simplifies the MyBatis usage. For those who are familiar with Spring’s way of Dependency Injection process, using MyBatis-Spring is a very simple.

First let us see the process of using MyBatis without Spring.

MyBatis Tutorial: Part 3 – Mapping Relationships

In this post let us see how to use MyBatis ResultMap configuration to map relationships.

To illustrate we are considering the following sample domain model:

There will be Users and each User may have a Blog and each Blog can contain zero or more posts.

MyBatis Tutorial: Part-2: CRUD operations Using Annotations

In this post I will explain how to perform CRUD operations using MyBatis Annotation support without need of Queries configuration in XML mapper files.

Step#1: Create a table BLOG and a java domain Object Blog.

CREATE TABLE  blog 
(
      blog_id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
      blog_name varchar(45) NOT NULL,
      created_on datetime NOT NULL,
      PRIMARY KEY  (blog_id)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

package com.sivalabs.mybatisdemo.domain;

import java.util.Date;

public class Blog 
{
     private Integer blogId;
     private String blogName;
     private Date createdOn;
     
     //Seeters and getters
     
     @Override
     public String toString() {
      return "Blog [blogId=" + blogId + ", blogName=" + blogName
        + ", createdOn=" + createdOn + "]";
     }
}

Step#2: Create UserMapper.java interface with SQL queries in Annotations.

10 things to become an outstanding Java developer

If you are a java developer and passionate about technology, you can follow the below things which makes you an outstanding Java developer.

1. Have a strong foundation and understanding on OO Principles

For a java developer having strong understanding on Object Oriented Programming is a must. Without having a strong foundation on OOPS, one can’t realize the beauty of an Object Oriented Programming language like Java. If you don’t have good idea on what OOPS is, eventhough you are using OOP language you may be still coding in procedural way.Just studying OO principles definitions won’t help much. we should know how to apply those OO principles in designing a solution in OO way. So one should have a strong knowledge on Object modeling, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Design Patterns.
