Microservices break down a large application into smaller components, each interacting with each other to create a united whole. As each component can start, stop, and scale independently, so the whole system benefits from better fault-tolerance and resilience.

Enterprise Java Microservices is an example-rich tutorial that shows readers how to design and manage large-scale Java applications as a collection of microservices.

Enterprise Java is a set of APIs, and their implementations, that can provide the entire stack of an application from UI down to the database, communicate with external applications via webservices, and integrate with internal legacy systems, to name a few, with the goal of supporting the business requirements of an Enterprise.
