Solutions for modular, functional, reactive, GUI, network, and multithreaded programming
Key FeaturesExplore the latest features of Java 11 to implement efficient and reliable codeDevelop memory-efficient applications, understanding new garbage collection in Java 11Create restful webservices and microservices with Spring boot 2 and DockerBook DescriptionFor more than three decades, Java has been on the forefront of developing robust software that has helped versatile businesses meet their requirements. Being one of the most widely used programming languages in history, it’s imperative for Java developers to discover effective ways of using it in order to take full advantage of the power of the latest Java features. Java 11 Cookbook offers a range of software development solutions with simple and straightforward Java 11 code examples to help you build a modern software system.
Starting with the installation of Java, each recipe addresses various problem by explaining the solution and offering insights into how it works. You’ll explore the new features added to Java 11 that will make your application modular, secure, and fast. The book contains recipes on functional programming, GUI programming, concurrent programming, and database programming in Java. You’ll also be taken through the new features introduced in JDK 18.3 and 18.9.
By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with the skills required to write robust, scalable, and optimal Java code effectively.

Nick Samoylov graduated as an engineer-physicist from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, has worked as a theoretical physicist, and learned how to program as a tool for testing his mathematical models using FORTRAN and C++. After the demise of the USSR, Nick created and successfully ran a software company, but was forced to close it under pressure from governmental and criminal rackets. In 1999, with his wife Luda and two daughters, he emigrated to the USA and has been living in Colorado since then, working as a Java programmer. In his free time, Nick likes to read (mostly non-fiction), write (fiction novels and blogs), and hike the Rocky Mountains. Mohamed Sanaulla is a full-stack developer with more than 8 years, experience in developing enterprise applications and Java-based backend solutions for e-commerce applications. His interests include enterprise software development, refactoring and redesigning applications, designing and implementing RESTful web services, troubleshooting Java applications for performance issues, and TDD. He has strong expertise in Java-based application development, ADF (a JSF-based Java EE web framework), SQL, PL/SQL, JUnit, designing RESTful services, Spring, Spring Boot, Struts, Elasticsearch, and MongoDB. He is also a Sun Certified Java Programmer for the Java 6 platform. He is a moderator for JavaRanch and likes to share his findings on his blog.
