Dependency Injection & IoC

// Configuration class
@Configuration
@PropertySource("classpath:application.yml")
public class AppConfig {
    
    @Bean
    @ConditionalOnProperty(name = "cache.enabled", havingValue = "true")
    public CacheManager cacheManager(RedisConnectionFactory connectionFactory) {
        RedisCacheConfiguration config = RedisCacheConfiguration.defaultCacheConfig()
            .entryTtl(Duration.ofMinutes(10))
            .serializeKeysWith(RedisSerializationContext.SerializationPair
                .fromSerializer(new StringRedisSerializer()))
            .serializeValuesWith(RedisSerializationContext.SerializationPair
                .fromSerializer(new GenericJackson2JsonRedisSerializer()));
        
        return RedisCacheManager.builder(connectionFactory)
            .cacheDefaults(config)
            .build();
    }
    
    @Bean
    @Profile("!test")
    public RestTemplate restTemplate(RestTemplateBuilder builder) {
        return builder
            .setConnectTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(5))
            .setReadTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(10))
            .interceptors(new LoggingInterceptor())
            .build();
    }
}

Microservices Patterns

// Circuit breaker with Resilience4j
@Component
public class ExternalServiceClient {
    
    private final RestTemplate restTemplate;
    private final CircuitBreaker circuitBreaker;
    
    public ExternalServiceClient(RestTemplate restTemplate) {
        this.restTemplate = restTemplate;
        this.circuitBreaker = CircuitBreaker.ofDefaults("external-service");
        
        circuitBreaker.getEventPublisher()
            .onStateTransition(event -> 
                log.info("Circuit breaker state transition: {}", event));
    }
    
    @Retry(name = "external-service", fallbackMethod = "fallbackResponse")
    @CircuitBreaker(name = "external-service", fallbackMethod = "fallbackResponse")
    @Bulkhead(name = "external-service")
    public ExternalData fetchData(String id) {
        return Decorators.ofSupplier(() -> 
                restTemplate.getForObject("/api/data/" + id, ExternalData.class))
            .withCircuitBreaker(circuitBreaker)
            .withRetry(Retry.ofDefaults("external-service"))
            .decorate()
            .get();
    }
    
    public ExternalData fallbackResponse(String id, Exception ex) {
        log.warn("Fallback triggered for id: {}", id, ex);
        return ExternalData.empty();
    }
}

Data Access with JPA

// Repository with custom queries
@Repository
public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository<User, UUID>, 
                                        JpaSpecificationExecutor<User> {
    
    @Query("SELECT u FROM User u WHERE u.email = :email AND u.active = true")
    Optional<User> findActiveByEmail(@Param("email") String email);
    
    @Modifying
    @Query("UPDATE User u SET u.lastLogin = :timestamp WHERE u.id = :id")
    void updateLastLogin(@Param("id") UUID id, @Param("timestamp") Instant timestamp);
    
    @EntityGraph(attributePaths = {"roles", "permissions"})
    Optional<User> findWithRolesById(UUID id);
    
    // Dynamic queries with Specifications
    default Page<User> findWithFilters(UserFilter filter, Pageable pageable) {
        Specification<User> spec = Specification.where(null);
        
        if (filter.getName() != null) {
            spec = spec.and((root, query, cb) -> 
                cb.like(cb.lower(root.get("name")), 
                    "%" + filter.getName().toLowerCase() + "%"));
        }
        
        if (filter.getCreatedAfter() != null) {
            spec = spec.and((root, query, cb) -> 
                cb.greaterThanOrEqualTo(root.get("createdAt"), 
                    filter.getCreatedAfter()));
        }
        
        return findAll(spec, pageable);
    }
}

Reactive Programming

// WebFlux reactive controller
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/v1/stream")
public class StreamController {
    
    private final ReactiveUserService userService;
    
    @GetMapping(value = "/users", produces = MediaType.TEXT_EVENT_STREAM_VALUE)
    public Flux<ServerSentEvent<UserEvent>> streamUsers() {
        return userService.getUserEvents()
            .map(event -> ServerSentEvent.<UserEvent>builder()
                .id(event.getId())
                .event(event.getType())
                .data(event)
                .retry(Duration.ofSeconds(5))
                .build())
            .doOnError(error -> log.error("Error in stream", error))
            .onErrorResume(error -> Flux.empty());
    }
    
    @PostMapping("/process")
    public Mono<ProcessResult> processAsync(@RequestBody Flux<DataChunk> chunks) {
        return chunks
            .buffer(100)
            .flatMap(batch -> processBatch(batch))
            .reduce(ProcessResult::merge)
            .timeout(Duration.ofMinutes(5))
            .doOnSuccess(result -> log.info("Processing complete: {}", result));
    }
}

Security with Spring Security

@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
public class SecurityConfig {
    
    @Bean
    public SecurityFilterChain filterChain(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        return http
            .csrf().disable()
            .sessionManagement()
                .sessionCreationPolicy(SessionCreationPolicy.STATELESS)
            .and()
            .authorizeHttpRequests()
                .requestMatchers("/api/public/**").permitAll()
                .requestMatchers("/api/admin/**").hasRole("ADMIN")
                .anyRequest().authenticated()
            .and()
            .oauth2ResourceServer()
                .jwt()
                .jwtAuthenticationConverter(jwtAuthenticationConverter())
            .and()
            .exceptionHandling()
                .authenticationEntryPoint(new HttpStatusEntryPoint(HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED))
            .and()
            .build();
    }
    
    @Bean
    public JwtAuthenticationConverter jwtAuthenticationConverter() {
        JwtGrantedAuthoritiesConverter authoritiesConverter = 
            new JwtGrantedAuthoritiesConverter();
        authoritiesConverter.setAuthorityPrefix("ROLE_");
        authoritiesConverter.setAuthoritiesClaimName("roles");
        
        JwtAuthenticationConverter converter = new JwtAuthenticationConverter();
        converter.setJwtGrantedAuthoritiesConverter(authoritiesConverter);
        return converter;
    }
}

Testing Strategies

// Integration testing
@SpringBootTest
@AutoConfigureMockMvc
@TestPropertySource(locations = "classpath:application-test.yml")
class UserControllerIntegrationTest {
    
    @Autowired
    private MockMvc mockMvc;
    
    @MockBean
    private UserService userService;
    
    @Test
    @WithMockUser(roles = "ADMIN")
    void shouldCreateUser() throws Exception {
        CreateUserRequest request = new CreateUserRequest("John", "[e-mail]");
        UserDto response = new UserDto(UUID.randomUUID(), "John", "[e-mail]");
        
        when(userService.create(any())).thenReturn(response);
        
        mockMvc.perform(post("/api/v1/users")
                .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(request)))
            .andExpect(status().isCreated())
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.name").value("John"))
            .andExpect(jsonPath("$.email").value("[e-mail]"));
    }
    
    @Test
    @Sql("/test-data/users.sql")
    @Transactional
    @Rollback
    void shouldFindUsersByFilter() {
        // Test with actual database
    }
}

Performance & JVM Tuning

📎 Code example 2 (java) — see references/examples.md

Best Practices

1. Use immutable objects where possible
2. Leverage Java 8+ functional features
3. Implement proper exception handling
4. Use dependency injection consistently
5. Write comprehensive tests
6. Monitor application metrics
7. Profile and optimize performance

Design Patterns

• Singleton (Spring beans)
• Factory (Bean factories)
• Builder (Lombok @Builder)
• Strategy (Interface implementations)
• Observer (Event listeners)
• Decorator (AOP)
• Template Method (Abstract classes)

Output Format

When implementing Java solutions:

1. Follow Java naming conventions
2. Use Spring Boot best practices
3. Implement comprehensive error handling
4. Add Javadoc documentation
5. Include unit and integration tests
6. Use Lombok to reduce boilerplate
7. Configure proper logging

Always prioritize:

• Enterprise-grade reliability
• Maintainability
• Performance at scale
• Security best practices
• Clean architecture
