Chapter 3. Spring and Spring Boot

3.1. Spring and Spring Boot tutorials

Note

These code tutorials use Data Grid Server and require at least one running instance.

Run Spring examples

$ mvn -s /path/to/maven-settings.xml package exec:exec

Run Spring Boot examples

$ mvn -s /path/to/maven-settings.xml spring-boot:run

Displaying actuator statistics

Navigate to http://localhost:8080/actuator/metrics in your browser to display a list of available metrics. Cache metrics are prefixed with "cache." Display each metric for each cache using tags. For example for the 'puts' stats in the basque-names cache:

http://localhost:8080/actuator/metrics/cache.puts?tag=name:basque-names

Collecting statistics with Prometheus

The prometheus.yml file in this project contains a host.docker.internal binding that allows Prometheus to scrap metrics that the Spring actuator exposes.

Change the YOUR_PATH value in the following command to the directory where Prometheus is running and then run:

Podman

$ podman run -d --name=prometheus -p 9090:9090 -v YOUR_PATH/integrations/spring-boot/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml prom/prometheus --config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
