Stratospheric (Radiant Reader (eBook))
Stratospheric
From Zero to Production with Spring Boot and AWS
About the Book
With Spring Boot being the leading framework for building applications in the JVM ecosystem and AWS the leading cloud platform, their combination is quite powerful.
This book will teach you everything you need to know to get your Spring Boot application running on AWS.
Throughout this book, we'll develop a web application that seamlessly integrates common AWS services such as SQS, S3, SNS, RDS, Cognito, and ECS using Spring Cloud AWS.
Not only will we focus on developing the application with Spring Boot but also take a detailed look at getting it ready for production. This includes a continuous deployment pipeline, infrastructure-as-code using CloudFormation and AWS CDK, deployment patterns, and monitoring.
The Stratospheric book will become your go-to resource for building production-ready applications with Spring Boot and AWS. It will prepare you for your next project in the cloud.
No previous AWS knowledge required.

Reader Testimonials
Ricardo Sueiras
Principal Advocate in Open Source - Amazon Web Services (AWS)
If you are a Spring Boot developer and looking to explore how to deploy your applications onto AWS, then you need to check out this book. The authors have put together a well thought out and easy to follow book that walks you through the typical use cases you will need. Perfect for beginners and an invaluable reference guide for those more experienced, they continue to add new content to this book and I cannot say enough great things about it.
Andreas Wittig
AWS Consultant and Co-Author of Amazon Web Service in Action
Björn, Philip, and Tom do a great job on teaching how to build a Java application on AWS. I highly recommend the book to Java developers. The book uses modern AWS services, that are ready for production workloads, and avoids the bleeding edge. The examples show how to bundle your app into a container image and deploy it with ECS and Fargate, which I highly appreciate, that the book even covers monitoring and creating a deployment pipeline.
Dennis Traub
Developer Advocate - Amazon Web Services (AWS)
One of the most-frequent questions I get from developers is how they can get started with AWS without having to first learn and understand all the details of the hundreds of available services. In their book, Tom, Philip, and Björn do an excellent job, initially focusing on just a few basic services to quickly get you started. Once your application is up and running, you gradually add additional capabilities, like continuous integration, monitoring, alerting, and automated incident response.

Great book covering many best practices of modern cloud based infrastructure setup, application development and operations using Spring Boot and AWS. Regardless of whether you’re a novice or seasoned developer, I highly recommend this book
AbdulRahman elRawas

This is an excellent book for every Spring Boot developer who wants to level up their knowledge and move their applications to the AWS cloud. I'm still halfway through the book, and it feels like someone is taking me by my hand into the AWS forest of services. The writers went just deep enough (and not too much) into each service they tackled and included practical exercises to follow along the way. That's giving confidence and instilling the learning naturally.

If you want to know how to deploy your Spring Boot Application to the cloud and seek clarity on the available services (AWS), Stratospheric is an excellent resource for you. I found the explanations lucid and succinct with excellent worked examples. I would highly recommend this book - it's great value and I look forward to the online course also.
Asiel Leal Celdeiro
Software Developer
Excellent book that covers from theoretical aspects to hands-on examples on how to create a production-grade Spring Boot application deployed using AWS. I consider it a part of my toolkit already :)
Branislav Beňo
Software Developer at Siemens
I thought that learning how to deploy Spring Boot application to the cloud, would require unbearable long time. But then came this book, and my worries vanished. On less than 500 pages, I found all I was looking for. From deployment preparation, through application connecting with required AWS services to deployment realization and application monitoring. And what is the best, all accompanied by useful code examples and access to related GitHub repository.
Gregory Zak
Senior Java Developer
Not just the theory... Delivers on the implementation. Great book that easily blends the integration of the Spring Boot framework with Amazon’s AWS services, progressing from overview to deliverables. Excellent logical organization of the fundamental AWS services that a developer can easily learn and retain in a step-by-step manner.
