  • Learn how to build systems that are easy to change and understand
  • Leverage Quarkus to create modern cloud-native applications
  • Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook

Description

We live in a fast-evolving world with new technologies emerging every day, where enterprises are constantly changing in an unending quest to be more profitable. So, the question arises — how to develop software capable of handling a high level of unpredictability. With this question in mind, this book explores how the hexagonal architecture can help build robust, change-tolerable, maintainable, and cloud-native applications that can meet the needs of enterprises seeking to increase their profits while dealing with uncertainties. This book starts by uncovering the secrets of the hexagonal architecture’s building blocks, such as entities, use cases, ports, and adapters. You’ll learn how to assemble business code in the domain hexagon, create features with ports and use cases in the application hexagon, and make your software compatible with different technologies by employing adapters in the framework hexagon. In this new edition, you’ll learn about the differences between a hexagonal and layered architecture and how to apply SOLID principles while developing a hexagonal system based on a real-world scenario. Finally, you’ll get to grips with using Quarkus to turn your hexagonal application into a cloud-native system. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to develop robust, flexible, and maintainable systems that will stand the test of time.

Who is this book for?

This book is for software architects and Java developers looking to improve code maintainability and enhance productivity with an architecture that allows changes in technology without compromising business logic. Intermediate knowledge of the Java programming language and familiarity with Jakarta EE will help you to get the most out of this book.

What you will learn

  • Apply SOLID principles to the hexagonal architecture
  • Assemble business rules algorithms using the specified design pattern
  • Combine domain-driven design techniques with hexagonal principles to create powerful domain models
  • Employ adapters to enable system compatibility with various protocols such as REST, gRPC, and WebSocket
  • Create a module and package structure based on hexagonal principles
  • Use Java modules to enforce dependency inversion and ensure software component isolation
  • Implement Quarkus DI to manage the life cycle of input and output ports

The book takes you on a journey through the intricacies of hexagonal architecture. One of the book's standout features is its clear explanation of the hexagonal architecture's fundamental elements, such as entities, use cases, ports, and adapters. The author walks you through each component, demonstrating how to structure your code to achieve maximum maintainability and flexibility. The real-world scenario examples are a valuable addition, offering practical insights into applying SOLID principles within a hexagonal context.

This book covers the ports and adapters pattern, also referred to as hexagonal architecture, using Java and Quarkus. The book provides a clear and detailed introduction into this architecture. There are sufficient examples throughout the book to help us understand how to use hexagon applications and how to build the hexagon framework. There is a section that covers how to use Quarkus for a modernized approach. Overall, a great read!

Why, on earth, in this book input ports implement use cases, not the other way around?I highly recommend another book on this topic: "Get Your Hands Dirty on Clean Architecture, Java, 2nd Edition". That one is up to the point with many practical insights. Or just read some articles by the creator of Hexagonal Architecture.I got nothing from the superficial rendering of many subjects (DDD, Hexagonal, Quarkus) in this book.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter.
