Work with all aspects of batch processing in a modern Java environment using a selection of
Spring frameworks. This book provides up-to-date examples using the latest configuration
techniques based on Java configuration and Spring Boot. The Definitive Guide to Spring Batch
takes you from the Hello World! of batch processing to complex scenarios demonstrating cloud
native techniques for developing batch applications to be run on modern platforms. Finally this
book demonstrates how you can use areas of the Spring portfolio beyond just Spring Batch 4 to
collaboratively develop mission-critical batch processes. You'll see how a new class of use
cases and platforms has evolved to have an impact on batch-processing. Data science and big
data have become prominent in modern IT and the use of batch processing to orchestrate
workloads has become commonplace. The Definitive Guide to Spring Batch covers how running
finite tasks oncloud infrastructure in a standardized way has changed where batch applications
are run. Additionally you'll discover how Spring Batch 4 takes advantage of Java 9 Spring
Framework 5 and the new Spring Boot 2 micro-framework. After reading this book you'll be able
to use Spring Boot to simplify the development of your own Spring projects as well as take
advantage of Spring Cloud Task and Spring Cloud Data Flow for added cloud native functionality.
