Spring RESTBucks - A hypermedia-driven REST webservice

Spring MVC forms a solid foundation to implement REST based web-services in Java. However, in real-world projects developers still face challenges when it comes to advanced questions of REST. How to really leverage hypermedia? How to model more complex business functionality with REST. The talk introduces the Spring RESTBucks sample implementation of a hypermedia-driven REST web service and explains how it is using hypermedia elements to implement business processes and how Spring technologies (Spring Data REST, Spring Data JPA and Spring HATEOAS) help developers building the system.

Spring Data Repositories - Best Practices

The repository abstraction layer is one of the core pieces of the Spring Data projects. It provides a consistent, interface-based programming model to allow implementing data access layers easily for relational and NoSQL databases. We will have a look at the lessons learned from the application of it in various customer projects and summarize best practices for you to apply in your projects. The session will also discuss advanced features like the Querydsl integration, the integration of custom implementation code as well as hooks into Spring MVC and Spring HATEOAS.
