As the open source communities move forward, and new libraries are created, it raises some questions:
- Are we re-inventing the wheel?
- Which library is the most efficient (performance wise)?
- Which library is the most friendly (developer wise)?
This project contains Maven modules, where each module represents a different stack, i.e. a different implementation. All the module shares an implementation of a single REST API method. Lastly, all the implementations can be used in a microservice style, i.e. executable Jar files.
The matrix below gives an overview of the modules and their related stacks (ordered by module name):
- module: the name of the Maven module
- container: the web container used for deployment
- wiring: what kind of IoC is used
- stack: the used java libraries
| Module | Container | Wiring | Stack |
|---|---|---|---|
| raw servlet jetty | Jetty 9 | Manual | None, using standard java 8 |
