Repository Name: spring-boot-microservices

Description: This repository contains a collection of microservices developed using Spring Boot, demonstrating the implementation of a microservices architecture. The microservices cover different aspects of an organization, including organization service, department service, and employee service. Additionally, the repository includes other components such as an API gateway, a config server, and a service registry.

   • Config Server
   • Service Registry
5. Contributing

To run these microservices locally, follow the steps below:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/AvishkaUmesh/spring-boot-microservices.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd spring-boot-microservices

3. Build the microservices using Maven:

   mvn clean install

1. Start the Config Server:

   cd config-server
   mvn spring-boot:run

2. Start the Service Registry:

   cd service-registry
   mvn spring-boot:run

3. Start each microservice individually:

   • Organization Service:

     cd organization-service
     mvn spring-boot:run

   • Department Service:

     cd department-service
     mvn spring-boot:run

   • Employee Service:

     cd employee-service
     mvn spring-boot:run

4. Start the API Gateway:

   cd api-gateway
   mvn spring-boot:run

Now you can access the microservices and the API gateway at the appropriate endpoints.

• Responsible for managing organizations and their related information.
• Provides endpoints for creating organizations, retrieving organization details.

• Manages departments.
• Offers functionality for creating departments, retrieving department details.

• Handles employee-related operations.
• Provides endpoints for creating employees, retrieving employee details.

• Acts as a single entry point for accessing the microservices.
• Provides routing and load balancing capabilities.
• Simplifies client-side interactions with the microservices.

• Centralized configuration server for the microservices.
• Stores and manages configuration files for each microservice.
• Enables dynamic configuration updates without requiring service restarts.

• Registers and tracks the availability of microservices.
• Allows services to discover and communicate with each other dynamically.
• Facilitates load balancing and fault tolerance.
