Introduction
Cloud-native applications are becoming increasingly popular due to
their many benefits, such as scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. Cloud-
native applications are designed to take advantage of the cloud
paradigm. It means that they are distributed, scalable, resilient, and
elastic. You can run them on public, private, or hybrid clouds. To build
cloud-native applications, developers must use the right tools and
technologies.
Enterprise Java (or Jakarta Enterprise Edition) is a popular platform
for cloud-native applications. It provides a set of standards and APIs
that help developers build enterprise-grade applications. Many
platform vendors, including Red Hat, IBM, and Oracle, support this
standard. It offers a number features that make it an ideal choice for
developing cloud-native applications.
The MicroProfile initiative was started in 2016 by Red Hat, IBM,
Tomitribe, and Payara. The group aims to improve the application
developer experience in a microservices environment by providing a
baseline platform definition that multiple runtimes can implement. The
group released the first version of the MicroProfile specification in June,
2016. The specification includes a set of APIs for application
developers, including RESTful web services , context and dependency
injection, and JSON processing.
MicroProfile is a set of specifications that define how developers
can use Jakarta EE to build microservices. It also provides a platform
that helps developers create cloud-native applications. MicroProfile is
aligning its specifications with the Jakarta EE platform. The goal of the
MicroProfile group is to create a set of standards that developers can
use to develop microservices on top of the Jakarta EE platform. The
Eclipse Foundation, the home of the Jakarta EE project, also manages
the creation of MicroProfile standards.
MicroProfile is a Jakarta EE Working Group. It was created in
response to the popularity of microservices. It also addresses the need
for a standard platform for developing microservices. It initially
consisted of a few Jakarta EE vendors (IBM, Red Hat, Payara, and
Tomitribe) and has grown to include more than 25 members, including
Oracle, Microsoft, Hazelcast, and more. The Eclipse Foundation governs
the MicroProfile initiative, and the MicroProfile specification is
developed through the Eclipse MicroProfile project. The project is open
to all individuals and organizations that want to contribute. The
MicroProfile specification is developed openly and transparently, and
all contributions are welcomed. The Eclipse MicroProfile project uses a
collaborative development process, and all interested parties are
encouraged to participate.
Docker is a software container platform that allows developers to
package an application with all its dependencies into a standardized
unit for software development. You can run Docker containers on any
platform, including public, private, and hybrid clouds. It makes it easy
to deploy applications on any platform, including cloud platforms.
Docker is a popular open-source container platform that you can use to
package and run microservices. It provides several advantages over
traditional virtualization technologies, including portability, ease of use,
and more.
Kubernetes is a tool for managing containerized applications. It
provides an open-source platform for deploying, managing, and scaling
applications. Kubernetes is based on the Linux kernel and can use
Docker containers to manage applications. It provides features such as
scaling, load balancing, and self-healing.
Kubernetes automates the deployment, scaling, and management of
containerized apps. It supports easy management and discovery of
your applications by grouping containers into logical units. Kubernetes
is built on decades of experience at Google running production
workloads at scale, as well as adopting the best-of-breed ideas and
practices from the community.
Kubernetes is portable and extensible, allowing it to run anywhere,
from your laptop to public clouds to data centers. The simplicity and
flexibility of Kubernetes make it an excellent choice for cloud-native
applications. In addition, it’s open-source software, allowing you to take
advantage of community innovations.
Kubernetes is production-ready, with robust features and
capabilities to orchestrate your containerized applications. Kubernetes
has been battle-tested at scale, running some of the largest sites in the
world.
 In this book, you learn how to use MicroProfile and Jakarta EE
technologies to develop microservices, deploy them on
Kubernetes/Docker, and create cloud-native applications. The book also
covers best practices for developing cloud-native applications with
MicroProfile and Jakarta EE. It starts by looking at the different aspects
of cloud-native applications. You will then move on to setting up your
development environment and learning about the basics of Jakarta EE.
Next, the book explores the features of MicroProfile and you’ll learn
how to use them to build microservices. You will then learn about
Docker and Kubernetes and how to use them to deploy your
applications. Finally, you will put everything together and learn how to
build a complete cloud-native application.
Who This Book Is For
Welcome to Beginning Cloud Native Development with MicroProfile,
Jakarta EE, and Kubernetes.
This book is for Java developers who want to learn how to develop
cloud-native applications using MicroProfile and Jakarta EE. No prior
knowledge of Kubernetes or container orchestration is required.
In this book, you learn how to develop cloud-native applications
using MicroProfile and Jakarta EE and deploy them to Kubernetes. The
book covers topics such as writing RESTful web services, creating
microservices, configuring health checks, and more.
By the end of this book, you will be able to develop cloud-native
applications using MicroProfile and Jakarta EE and deploy them to
Kubernetes.
How This Book Is Structured
This book covers four main topics.
Cloud-native development introduces the concept of cloud-native
development and the twelve-factor app methodology. You learn
about the benefits of developing cloud-native applications and the
challenges you must consider when migrating existing applications
to the cloud.
MicroProfile specifications provides an overview of the
MicroProfile specifications and how they can be used to develop
microservices. You learn about the different types of annotations
available and how to use them to create RESTful web services .
Jakarta EE specifications introduces the Jakarta EE platform and its
various specifications. You learn about the differences between Java
EE and Jakarta EE and the new features available on the platform.
Kubernetes covers the basics of container orchestration with
Kubernetes. You learn about the different types of objects created in
a Kubernetes cluster, how to deploy applications to Kubernetes, and
how to scale applications using Kubernetes.

Conventions
Throughout the book, I use a consistent style for presenting Java code,
SQL, command-line text, and results. When pieces of code, SQL,
reserved words, or code fragments are presented in the text, they are
presented in fixed-width Courier font, such as this (working) example:

public class MyExample {

public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println("Jakarta EE is
excellent!");
}
}

1. Introduction to Cloud Computing

Tarun Telang1

(1) Hyderabad, India

Cloud computing is the latest buzzword in the technology industry, and

for good reason. It has the potential to revolutionize the way people use
computers. This chapter introduces cloud computing and explains what
it is. You will also look at some examples of cloud computing and learn
about the benefits of using this new technology. Finally, you will explore
the different types of cloud computing and see how they have evolved
over time.

Introduction to Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is a type of computing where resources, such as
applications and data, are stored on remote servers and accessed over
the Internet. Instead of having a program installed on your computer,
you can access or keep programs on a remote server. As a result, you
can access your data from any device with an Internet connection,
whether it’s a desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
Cloud computing has the following key benefits . It enables
ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of
configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage,
applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released
with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. Figure
1-1 illustrates how end-users access cloud computing .
Figure 1-1 Cloud computing
Cloud computing also has environmental benefits because it
reduces the need for energy-intensive hardware.

Examples of Cloud Computing

There are many different examples of cloud computing, but some of the
most common ones include :
Email: Gmail, Yahoo Mail, and Outlook.com are all examples of email
services that are based in the cloud. This means that you can check
your email on your smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer,
regardless of where you are in the world. The ability to access your
email from any device with an Internet connection is an example of
cloud computing. This is an excellent feature if you need to check
your email while you’re on vacation or traveling for work. Further, if
you accidentally delete an email, it can be quickly recovered from the
cloud.
Cloud storage: Dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud are all examples of
cloud storage services . This means that instead of storing files on
your computer, you can store them online. This gives you the ability
to access those files from any device with an Internet connection.
Web-based productivity software: Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides
are all examples of productivity software that is based in the cloud.
This means that instead of having a program installed on your
computer, you can create and edit documents, spreadsheets, and
presentations from any device with an Internet connection. Cloud
storage is better than having documents on your computer because
you can access them from any device that has an Internet connection.
This is helpful if you need to work on a document from different
places or if you accidentally delete one. Additionally, cloud storage
makes it easier for people to collaborate on projects because they can
all work on the document simultaneously without having to worry
about emailing each other versions of the document.
Multimedia streaming: Netflix, Vimeo, and YouTube are all
examples of video streaming services, whereas Spotify, Apple Music,
and Pandora are all examples of music streaming services that are
based in the cloud. This means that instead of downloading media
(video or song) to your computer, you can watch it from any device
with an Internet connection . Media streaming is popular because it
doesn’t take up any space on your device, and you can watch videos
without waiting for them to download. Figure 1-2 shows different
types of cloud computing applications. These are just a few examples
of cloud computing. As you can see, cloud computing can be very
helpful in various ways.
Figure 1-2 Cloud computing application types

Benefits of Cloud Computing

In recent years, the use of cloud computing has grown exponentially.
This is because cloud computing can provide several benefits, such as
the following:
Cost savings: Cloud computing can save you money on hardware and
software costs. For example, you can use a cloud-based storage
service instead of buying a physical hard drive. Cloud-based storage
can be more cost-effective than buying a physical hard drive. This is
because you don’t have to buy expensive hardware, like a computer.
You also save money on software costs by using a cloud-based
application instead of buying a software program for your local
machine. This is a significant benefit of cloud-based solutions—you
don’t have to worry about capital expenditure for hardware and
software, regular patching, or data center upkeep. The provider takes
 care of all of these tasks. This can save you time and money, and it
makes it easy to get started with cloud computing.
Flexibility and scalability: Cloud computing gives you the ability to
scale your resources up or down, depending on your needs. For
example, if you have a sudden increase in traffic to your website, you
can quickly add more servers to handle the load . On the other hand,
if you have decreased traffic, you can remove servers to save on costs.
This can also save you money on your computing costs.
Reliability: Cloud-based services are more reliable than on-premises
solutions. This is because cloud providers have the resources and
expertise to ensure that their services are always up and running.
Cloud services are distributed across multiple servers, so there is no
single point of failure. The data is replicated across multiple servers
across multiple availability zones, so if one server goes down, the
others can pick up the slack. They have a disaster recovery plan in
place, which helps ensure that your data is always safe and accessible
.
Productivity: Cloud computing can improve your team’s
productivity by giving it the ability to access information and
applications from anywhere in the world.

Essential Characteristics of Cloud Computing

The cloud computing model comprises five essential characteristics, as
shown in Figure 1-3. They are on-demand self-service, broad network
access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, and measured service. Let’s
look at each of these characteristics in detail.
Figure 1-3 Essential characteristics of cloud computing

On-Demand Self-Service
Users can access the cloud services without interacting with the service
provider. They can simply sign up for a service through a web-based
interface and start using it immediately. For example, users can sign up
for cloud services and start using them to store their data without
needing to contact customer support. This characteristic enables users
to get started with cloud services quickly and easily without needing
complex configuration.

Broad Network Access

Cloud services can be accessed over a network using any standard
devices, such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets. For example, users
can access their cloud storage accounts from anywhere in the world
using their laptops or smartphones. This characteristic makes cloud
services very convenient and accessible.

Resource Pooling
The cloud provider pools the resources like storage, processing,
memory, and network bandwidth from multiple customers and makes
them available on demand. Multi-tenancy is a crucial feature of cloud
computing that enables providers to share resources among multiple
customers. In this model, each customer is given a dedicated portion of
the resources and is isolated from other customers. This helps
providers manage and monitor the resources more effectively and
provides customers with added security and privacy. This characteristic
also enables efficient utilization of resources and reduces the cost of
ownership.

Rapid Elasticity
Cloud services can be quickly scaled up or down to meet the changing
needs of the users. In some cases, consumers may automatically be able
to scale their usage up or down, depending on the cloud provider’s
policies . For example, a social networking site may need to quickly add
more servers during a significant event, such as an election or a natural
disaster. In other cases, users may need to scale down their usage to
save costs. This characteristic enables cloud providers to allocate
resources dynamically with the flexibility to increase or decrease their
usage as required.

Measured Service
Cloud providers offer metered services that are charged according to
their actual usage. In addition, cloud systems can automatically control
and optimize resources by leveraging a pattern in metering. For
example, a cloud storage service may automatically move data to
cheaper storage tiers when it is not accessed for a specific period. This
characteristic provides users with greater control over their usage and
costs.

Types of Cloud Computing Based on Deployment

Models
There are four main types of cloud computing: public, community,
private, and hybrid. Figure 1-4 shows each of these different types of
cloud computing based on deployment models.

Figure 1-4 Types of cloud computing based on deployment models

The following sections discuss each type of cloud computing in
detail.

Public Cloud
A public cloud is a type of cloud computing that delivers hosted
services over the Internet. Public clouds are owned and operated by
third-party companies that provide their resources—such as servers,
storage, and applications—to customers on demand. The most common
examples of public clouds are Gmail and Dropbox. These services allow
users to access their data and applications from any device with an
Internet connection.

Benefits of a Public Cloud

The main advantage of using a public cloud is that it’s highly scalable,
and you only pay for the resources you use. For example, you can buy
more storage space if you need to store more data in Gmail. Public
clouds are also convenient because they can be accessed from
anywhere worldwide.
Drawbacks of a Public Cloud
The main disadvantage of using a public cloud is that you’re relying on
the cloud provider’s security measures . For example, if Dropbox were
to experience a data breach, your data would be at risk. Additionally,
public clouds can be less reliable than private clouds because they are
subject to outages beyond the cloud provider’s control.

Community Cloud
A community cloud is a computing model that delivers shared
applications and data to a community of users with common
requirements or objectives. It promotes collaboration, flexibility, and
standardization within the community while providing users access to
a personalized, self-service environment. The cloud infrastructure is
provisioned for exclusive use by a specific community of consumers
from organizations with shared concerns (e.g., mission, security
requirements, policy, and compliance considerations).
The community cloud model can be used to support a variety of
communities, including those that are:
– Technical: Developers, engineers, or other technically-focused users
who share joint development or operational objectives.
– Business-based: Employees in the same company or organization
who need to collaborate on projects or access shared data.
– Geographic: People who live in the same region or city and want to
connect online.
– Interest-based: Users with a common interest or hobby who want to
connect and share information.
Community clouds are often established by organizations or users
who come together to pool resources and create a shared
infrastructure. This infrastructure can be used to host applications,
store data, or provide other services to members of the community. In
many cases, community clouds are managed by a third-party provider
who is responsible for maintaining the underlying infrastructure.

Benefits of a Community Cloud

A community cloud can offer many benefits to users, including:
 Reduced costs: By sharing resources and pooling expenses , users
can save money on computing costs.
Improved collaboration: A community cloud can make it easier for
users to collaborate on projects or access shared data.
Enhanced security: A community cloud can provide users with
improved security and privacy protection.
improved performance: By sharing resources, a community cloud
can improve the performance of applications and services for users.
Generally, a community cloud shares infrastructure between several
organizations from a specific group or sector with similar concerns
(security, compliance, jurisdiction, etc.), who have decided to cooperate
to optimize their resource utilization and reduce costs. Typically, each
organization uses its portion of the community cloud infrastructure and
pays according to its actual use.

Limitations of a Community Cloud

A community cloud can be a powerful tool for organizations that need
to share data or collaborate on projects. Still, it is essential to consider
the potential risks and benefits before implementing this solution. In
some cases, a community cloud may not be the best option for an
organization, mainly if there are concerns about security or privacy.
Organizations should also consider the following factors when
deciding whether to implement a community cloud:
Does my organization have the necessary resources to manage a
community cloud?
Are there any security or privacy concerns that need to be
considered?
What are the costs associated with implementing a community
cloud?
What are the benefits of using a community cloud?
Are there any potential risks associated with using a community
cloud?
A community cloud can be a great way to improve collaboration and
reduce costs, but it’s essential to consider the potential risks and
benefits before implementing this solution.
Private Cloud
The private cloud is a type of cloud computing that delivers similar
advantages to the public cloud, including scalability and self-service,
but through a proprietary architecture.
A private cloud is built on a private network and offers more
security and control than a public cloud. When an organization opts for
private cloud deployment, it can keep its data and applications in-house
or outsource it to a third-party provider.
Private clouds are owned and operated by a single organization.
This means that only members of that organization can access the
service.

Benefits of a Private Cloud

There are several benefits of using a private cloud, including :
Increased security and control: Private clouds offer increased
security and control over public clouds deployed on a private
network.
Improved performance: Private clouds can offer improved
performance, as they are not shared with other organizations.
Reduced costs: Private clouds can be more cost-effective than public
clouds, especially for organizations with the necessary infrastructure.

Disadvantages of a Private Cloud

Despite these benefits, there are also some challenges associated with
private clouds.
Private clouds can be more complex to deploy and manage than
public clouds. Additionally, private clouds may require a larger
upfront investment .
Organizations should carefully consider their needs before deciding
whether a private cloud is the correct solution.
Private clouds are not suitable for everyone, but they can be an
excellent option for organizations that require increased security and
control or improved performance. Private clouds are often used by
large organizations, such as banks and government agencies.
Hybrid Cloud
A hybrid cloud combines an on-premises infrastructure—or a private
cloud—with a public cloud. This combination can help organizations
access data and applications more easily and securely while
maintaining control over sensitive data. Hybrid clouds are often used
by organizations that need to keep specific data confidential. One
example of a hybrid cloud is an organization that stores some data and
applications on a private cloud and other data on a public cloud. This
combination can help organizations access data and applications more
easily and securely while maintaining stricter control over sensitive
data.

Benefits of a Hybrid Cloud

There are several benefits to using a hybrid cloud, including:
Increased flexibility: Organizations can more easily scale their
resources up or down as needed with a hybrid cloud. This can be
helpful during times of increased demand, such as during a product
launch or holiday shopping season.
Improved security: By keeping sensitive data on a private cloud,
organizations can better protect it from potential threats .
Reduced costs: Organizations can save money by using a hybrid
cloud, as they can take advantage of the lower costs associated with
public clouds while still maintaining control over their data.

Drawbacks of a Hybrid Cloud

There are also some potential drawbacks to using a hybrid cloud,
including:
Complicated management: Managing a private and public cloud
can be complex. Organizations need staff with the knowledge and
expertise to manage both types of environments.
Increased costs: While hybrid clouds can save organizations money,
they can also cost more than a private or public cloud alone. This is
because organizations need to maintain and manage two separate
environments .
 Potential security risks: Although hybrid clouds can offer improved
security, there is still the potential for data breaches. This is because
data is stored in both public and private environment, increasing the
chances that unauthorized individuals could access it.
A hybrid cloud provides many benefits for organizations, including
increased flexibility, improved security, and reduced costs. However,
there are also potential drawbacks, such as complicated management
and increased costs. Overall, a hybrid cloud is a good option for
organizations that need to maintain control over their data while taking
advantage of the lower costs associated with public clouds.

Service Models of Cloud Computing

As you have now learned about the essential characteristics of cloud
computing, this section covers the service models of cloud computing .
These service models are different modes in which cloud services can
be delivered. Figure 1-5 shows the three most common types of cloud
services, which are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a
Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS).
Figure 1-5 Service models of cloud computing
The following sections look at each of these service models in detail.

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software as a Service (SaaS) is a type of cloud computing that delivers
software applications over the Internet. SaaS is a way for businesses to
save money on IT infrastructure and reduce the complexity of
managing software applications.
With SaaS, businesses can access and use software applications
hosted in the cloud. This means that businesses don’t have to install or
manage the infrastructure required to run the software. SaaS
applications are typically accessed via a web browser or a mobile app.
The capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider’s
applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are
accessible from various client devices through either a thin client
interface, such as a web browser (e.g., web-based email), or a program
interface. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying
cloud infrastructure, including network, servers, operating systems,
storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible
exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.

Benefits
There are many benefits of using SaaS, including:
Reduced costs: With SaaS, businesses only pay for the software they
use on a subscription basis. There is no need to invest in hardware or
IT infrastructure.
Increased flexibility: SaaS applications can be accessed from any
device with an Internet connection. This makes it easy for businesses
to scale their usage up or down as needed.
Improved security: SaaS providers typically have strong security
measures in place to protect data.

Disadvantages
While SaaS can offer many benefits , there are also some issues to be
aware of, including:
Vendor lock-in: Once a business uses a SaaS application, it can be
challenging to switch to another provider. This is because data is
often stored in the cloud, and switching providers can be complex
and expensive.
Limited customization: SaaS applications are typically not as
customizable as on-premises software. This can make it challenging
to meet the specific needs of a business.
Internet dependency: SaaS applications require an Internet
connection to work. This can be an issue for businesses with poor
Internet connectivity.
Despite these issues, SaaS is a popular option for businesses of all
sizes. It can be a cost-effective and flexible way to improve business
operations.
How It Works
To understand how SaaS works, it is helpful to know a little about the
architecture of SaaS applications. SaaS applications are typically built
using a multi-tier architecture . This means that the application is
divided into multiple parts:
The frontend: This is the part of the application that users interact
with.
The backend: This is the part of the application that stores data and
handles the logic.
The middleware: This is the part of the application that connects
the frontend and backend. It is typically built using a web application
framework.
SaaS applications are hosted in the cloud, which means that they are
stored on a network of servers. When users want to use the application,
they send a request to the server. The server then sends the frontend
code to the user’s device. The user’s device then runs the code and
displays the frontend of the application. When users interact with the
application, their interactions are sent to the backend. The backend
then processes the request and sends a response back to the user’s
device.

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

PaaS is a cloud computing service that provides users with a platform
for developing, testing, and deploying applications in the cloud. PaaS
services can be delivered in various ways, including through a web-
based interface, an API, or a command-line interface.
PaaS is an excellent solution for developers who want to focus on
building applications without having to worry about managing
infrastructure. PaaS providers take care of all the underlying
infrastructure so that developers can concentrate on their code. In
addition, PaaS services are often scalable and provide high availability,
making them ideal for mission-critical applications.
The developers don’t manage or control the underlying cloud
infrastructure, including networks, servers, operating systems, or
storage, but have control over the deployed applications and possibly
over the application hosting environment configurations.

Benefits of PaaS
Consider these advantages offered by PaaS :
Reduced time to market for new applications: Since PaaS takes
care of all the underlying infrastructure, developers can focus on
building their applications, leading to a faster market lead time.
Cost savings: PaaS services are often more cost-effective than
traditional application development and deployment models since
you only pay for what you use.
Increased developer productivity: PaaS services can increase
developer productivity by providing them with everything they need
to develop and deploy applications in the cloud.
Improved application quality: PaaS services can help improve the
quality of your applications by providing access to the latest tools
and technologies.
Increased agility and flexibility: PaaS services can provide you
with the agility and flexibility you need to respond to changing
market conditions quickly.
PaaS services have recently become a popular solution for
organizations of all sizes who want to take advantage of the benefits of
cloud computing. Whether you’re looking to reduce costs, increase
developer productivity, or improve application quality, PaaS can help
you achieve your goals.

Limitations of PaaS
When choosing a PaaS provider, it’s important to consider your specific
needs and requirements. Make sure to carefully read the provider’s
terms of service to ensure that your use case is supported. In addition,
be aware of the following potential limitations of PaaS :
Vendor lock-in: Once you’ve developed your application on a
specific PaaS platform, it can be difficult and costly to migrate to
another platform. If your PaaS provider goes out of business or raises
prices significantly, this can be a problem.
 Lack of control: Since you don’t have control over the underlying
infrastructure, you may be limited in how you can customize and
configure your applications.
Security risks associated with shared infrastructure: Since PaaS
services share infrastructure with other customers, there is a risk
that your data could be compromised.
Limited choice of tools and technologies: Some PaaS providers
only offer a limited selection of tools and technologies, which may
not be suitable for your needs.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

IaaS refers to the provision of computing infrastructure—typically
physical or virtual machines —and associated services usually
delivered over the Internet. IaaS providers offer customers a pay-as-
you-go model for using, managing, and scaling these resources.
IaaS provides customers with on-demand access to a pool of
computing, storage, and networking resources. These resources can be
rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or
service provider interaction.
IaaS enables businesses to quickly scale their computing
infrastructure up or down, as needed. This flexibility is one of the key
benefits of IaaS.
IaaS providers offer a variety of services , including:
Compute (virtual and bare-metal servers)
Storage (object, block, and file storage)
Networking (load balancing, VPN, and DNS)
Monitoring and management (logging, performance monitoring, and
security monitoring)
Security (firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention, and compliance)

Benefits of IaaS
Some of the other benefits of IaaS include:
Reduced capital expenditure: Customers only pay for the resources
they use, when they use them. There is no need to make a large
upfront investment in hardware and software.
 Flexibility and scalability: Resources can be quickly scaled up or
down to meet changing needs.
Reduced operational expenditure: IaaS customers don’t have to
worry about managing and maintaining their infrastructure. This is
the responsibility of the service provider.
Pay per use: Customers only pay for the resources they use when
they use them.

Limitations of IaaS
IaaS is not without its limitations . These include:
Limited control: Customers do not have direct control over the
physical infrastructure.
Security concerns: Customers are responsible for the security of
their data and applications .
Vendor lock-in: Customers may be locked into a particular vendor’s
platform, making it difficult to switch to a different vendor in the
future.

The Role of Java in Cloud Computing

Java plays a very important role in cloud computing . There are several
reasons why Java is a good choice for developing cloud-based
applications.
1. Java is a very stable language: It has been around for over 25
years and is used by some of the biggest companies in the world,
such as Google, Amazon, and IBM. This means that there is a large
community of developers who are familiar with the language and
can provide support.

2. Java is very scalable: Java can be used to create programs for large
businesses. Many people know how to use it and can help you if you
have any problems. This means that it can handle large amounts of
data and traffic. Cloud-based applications often need to be able to
scale quickly and easily, and Java is built for this.
3. Java is secure: Security is very important for cloud-based
applications. Java has several security features built into the
language, which makes it more difficult for hackers to exploit. For
example, it has a robust security model that can be used to control
access to data and resources.

4. Java is efficient: Cloud-based applications need to be able to run

quickly and efficiently, and Java is designed for this. The Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) is very efficient, and Java code is compiled into
bytecode, which is also very efficient.

5. Java is well supported: There are many tools and libraries

available for Java developers, which makes it easier to develop
cloud-based applications .

Note Java is one of the most popular programming languages in

the world, and it has become a key part of cloud computing. Java’s
popularity is due in part to its platform independence. Java can run
on any device or operating system, which makes it a perfect choice
for cloud-based applications.

Some of the tools and libraries that can be used to build cloud
applications with Java include:
Jakarta EE is a standards-based platform for developing cloud-
friendly applications. It provides a comprehensive set of APIs and
features that make it easy to develop cloud-based applications.
Microprofile is a lightweight specification that provides a set of APIs
and features for developing microservices. It includes features such
as health checking, configuration, and security.
As per the TIOBE Index ( https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-
index/ ), Java is currently the third most popular language after
Python and C. It has been in the top three since 2002 and shows no
signs of falling anytime soon. This is due to its large and loyal user base,
as well as the many features that make it ideal for developing cloud-
based applications.

copyright law means that no one owns a United States copyright in
these works, so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it
in the United States without permission and without paying
copyright royalties. Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of
Use part of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG™

and may not be used if you charge for an eBook, except by following
the terms of the trademark license, including paying royalties for use
of the Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything
for copies of this eBook, complying with the trademark license is
very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as
creation of derivative works, reports, performances and research.
Project Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and printed and given
away—you may do practically ANYTHING in the United States with
eBooks not protected by U.S. copyright law. Redistribution is subject
to the trademark license, especially commercial redistribution.

performing, displaying or creating derivative works based on the

no representations concerning the copyright status of any work in
any country other than the United States.

 This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United
States and most other parts of the world at no cost and with

Gutenberg™ License. You must require such a user to return or
destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
Project Gutenberg™ works.

any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in
the electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90
days of receipt of the work.

distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.

the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend

considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe
and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating
the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project
Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may
be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to,
incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a
copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or
damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer
codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for

the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3,
the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the
Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a
Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim
all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR
NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR
BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH
1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK
OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL
NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF
YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you

discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving
it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by
sending a written explanation to the person you received the work
from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must
return the medium with your written explanation. The person or
entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide
a replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work
electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to
give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in
lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may
demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the
problem.
