The Complete Spring Integration Framework Masterclass

Spring Integration provides an extension of the Spring programming model to support the well known Enterprise Integration Patterns. It enables lightweight messaging within Spring–based applications and supports integration with external systems through declarative adapters. Those adapters provide a higher level of abstraction over Spring s support for remoting, messaging, and scheduling.

This course begins with an introduction to the enterprise integration landscape, the challenges, the approaches that have been tried, and how Spring Integration can help address these issues. You will learn how to deal with enterprise integration challenges such as the heterogeneous communication format, data transfer, transformation, external system invocation, security or transaction propagation, and more. You will also see how each of these layers can be addressed by a specific set of Spring Integration components.

Spring Integration s primary goal is to provide a simple model for building enterprise integration solutions while maintaining the separation of concerns that is essential for producing maintainable, testable code.

You will explore each Spring Integration component in the context of the enterprise integration problem that it tries to address by covering the theory, writing code snippets, and doing real integration. After addressing the core messaging patterns, such as those used in transformation and routing, the course turns to the adapters that enable integration with external systems. You  will explore real–world enterprise integration scenarios using JMS, Web Services, file systems, and email. You will also learn about Spring Integration’s support for working with XML. The course concludes with a practical guide to advanced topics such as concurrency, performance, system–management, and monitoring.
