Groovy with
Dropwizard	

for high performance
and reliable web
services
Tomas Lin @tomaslin
!

Goals for this talk

• Quick tour of Dropwizard functionality

written with Groovy & friends instead of
pure Java.	


• Showcase some of the “DevOps” friendly
features in Dropwizard for easy setup,
deployment and monitoring.
This is not a talk about
REST Services
• Everything I tell you about REST will
probably be a lie. 	


• Think JSON services over http.

What is Dropwizard?
http://gunshowcomic.com/316
http://www.dropwizard.io
Dropwizard stack
• Takes mature, well known Java frameworks
and glues them together. 	


• Jetty for HTTP	

• Jersey for REST	

• Jackson for JSON	

• Metrics for metrics	

• Etc. ( Logback, Hibernate, Liquibase, etc )
Additional Integrations
• Scala	

• Views ( Freemaker / Mustache )	

• Liquibase migrations	

• Authentication ( http and oAuth2 )	

• Dropwizard Spring - https://github.com/
SindicatoSource/dropwizard-spring

Dropwizard with Grails at Sky Find and Watch
Performance
Dropwizard is a very high performance, low latency
framework.

http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/
Other niceties

• Testable. Every part of the system can be
tested during development.	


• Deployment friendly - easy to configure,
deploy and monitor. 	


• Pure Java.
Getting Started	

with Dropwizard 	

and Groovy
Lazybones Starter
Template
• By Kyle Boon from Bloom Health	

• Available via Lazybones template tool by
Peter Ledbrook	


• You can get Lazybones via gvm
Lazybones Starter
Template
• Gradle build	

• Spock tests	

• Hibernate persistance layer	

• Fat Jars via Shadow ( like Maven’s Shade )	

• CodeNarc for clean code	

• Cobertura for test coverage
Tasks
• Test the application ./gradlew test	

• Build a Jar file for deploy ./gradlew shadow
• Drop a database ./gradlew dropAll 	

• Setup database ./gradlew migrate	

• You can add your own like deployToCloud
Parts of a Dropwizard 	

Application
Banner	


src/main/resources/banner.txt
Services
• Like an Application in Grails	

• Central place where all the other building
blocks are connected.
Services
• The Dropwizard approach to services lets

us see one place where all our other
components are bound and glued together.	


• Relationships between other parts must be
explicitly declared. There is no magic
linking.
Configurations	


• Each service has a configuration that is
passed into the run method. 	


• Dropwizard has default configurations for
clients, logging and Jetty that can be
overwritten
Configurations
Same jar file, configuration is externalized.	

!

java -jar application.jar server test.yml	

java -jar application.jar server stage.yml	

java -jar application.jar server prod.yml
Configurations	

gradleplugins/src/main/groovy/com/tomaslin/gradleplugins/	

GradlePluginsConfiguration.groovy
Configurations
Configurations
Configurations	

add to .yml file
Configuration
• Mapped by Jackson. Uses Hibernate Validator.	

• @Max / @Min	

• @NotNull	

• @Size(min=0, max=50)	

• @Pattern(regex=, flag=)	

• @Future / @Past	

• @NotEmpty	

• @CreditCardNumber
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/validator/4.2/reference/enUS/html_single/#validator-defineconstraints-builtin
Nesting Configurations
vs. Java version
Configurations	

• Configurations are vital because they allow
us to make sure we got all the details for
our service right.	


• One config file instead of merged conflict

from many sources eliminates confusion
and makes it easy to automate / swap out.
Resources	

• Represent a set of service endpoints	

• Like Controllers in Grails	

• They are just Jersey Resources:




https://jersey.java.net/nonav/documentation/
latest/user-guide.html#jaxrs-resources
Resource
Resources
• @GET, @POST, @PUT, @DELETE,
@HEAD, @OPTIONS, and even
@HttpMethod	


• @Path("/{user}/notifications")


@PathParam("user") LongParam userId,
@QueryParam("count")
@DefaultValue("20") IntParam count
Resources
Resources
• Tested not as Unit mocks, but as Jersey
components with a real Jersey server.	


• Similar to the FakeServer in Grails Rest Client	

• Dropwizard comes with a ResourceTest that
works with Mockito / JUnit	


• I wrote a Spock equivalent available at http://

fbflex.wordpress.com/2013/01/30/dropwizardwith-spock-and-groov/
Resources
In your IDE
Representations	


• Lets you formally describe the data flowing
in and out of your REST API. 	


• Data Transfer Objects that can be validated.	

• It gives you a way to easily map them into
your database objects either directly or via
a DAO.	


• Recommended approach is to share

representations between servers and
clients.
Representations
• The use of representations ensure the

contract between our REST endpoints and
clients that consume this endpoint.	


• You could also just skip this and go straight
to your other endpoints or JSON friendly
database.
Caching
Metrics

• Uses Coda Hale’s own Metrics Library	

• Integrates with JMX, http, Ganglia and
Graphite
Metrics
@Timed - duration and rate of events	

@Metered - rate of events	

@ExceptionMetered - rate of exceptions
Metrics
Kim Betti
Dropwizard
Dashboard with
Vert.x
https://github.com/
kimble/
dropwizarddashboard
Metrics
• They are first class citizens within
Dropwizard.	


• Very flexible.You can define custom
metrics, set Gauges, etc. 	


• It’s about communicating the actual state of
your server back to the mothership so it
can be coordinated.
Logging
• Dropwizard has a pretty robust default
logging configuration.
Logging
• We can use the @Slf4j annotation in Groovy
Logging
Logging
• I am lazy.	

• Don’t realize logs are needed until it is too
late.	


• Logs are time machines to past

malfunctions, making them easy to set up
allows us to use them.
Client Support
• Dropwizard has available both the Apache
HttpClient and the Jersey Client.	


• Jersey Client can use same deserialization
available to the server
We can now use the client within the
Resource to fetch http data from other sources
Clients
• Returns a fully wrapped object that emits
metrics. This allows us to monitor how
they are used and identify bottlenecks or
bugs.
Managed Objects
• Classes that have a start and end phase
attached to the service.	


• Often have their own configurations.	

• Easy way to encapsulate integrations into
other services / systems.
Health Checks
• Runtime checks that the service is
operating correctly	


• If an exception is thrown, this is shown on
the health monitoring screen	


• Also throws a 500 error code on the
health check page for tools
Health Checks
• Quick diagnostics on running instance.	

• Better to kill a sick service than to keep it
running and potentially corrupting your
data. 	


• Also helps when you are deploying and
building out your infrastructure.
Other Features
• Tasks - Like Grails Scripts	

• Commands - Jobs that can be invoked via
an URL. Lots of power since you’re using
the same stack as your runtime service. 	


• Others - Filters, Bundles, etc.
http://www.dropwizard.io/manual/
Deployment
Make Jars, not Wars
One jar file from CI to deploy
Deploying Dropwizard	

java $JAVA_OPTS -Ddw.http.port=$PORT 	

-Ddw.http.adminPort=$PORT -jar application.jar 	

server prod.yml
Grails Equivalents
• Dropwizard Plugin by Burt Beckwith

http://grails.org/plugin/dropwizard	


• Health Control Plugin by Kim Betti 


http://grails.org/plugin/health-control	


• Validate Config Plugin by Andy Miller


http://grails.org/plugin/validate-config	


• Metrics Plugin by Jeff Ellis


http://grails.org/plugin/yammer-metrics
Using Groovy
• Less verbose objects. Can use map
constructors.	


• Nice annotations for logging.	

• Gradle / Spock / Betamax / Lazybones.	

• Not sure if @CompileStatic has any changes
that are significant - 6%

[ http://kyleboon.org/blog/2013/09/26/doescompile-static-make-your-website-faster/ ]
Development
• A lot faster since there is very little magic
and user interface to test.	


• Excellent support in IntelliJ for Gradle
project and tasks.
Final Thoughts
• Think about the deployed application. 	

• Grails + Dropwizard. Not Grails or
Dropwizard.	


• This is just mini-scale. What happens when
you have 100 services/servers? 1,000?
1,000,000? ( Come work at Netflix! )

Dropwizard and Groovy

  • 1. Groovy with Dropwizard for high performance and reliable web services Tomas Lin @tomaslin
  • 2. ! Goals for this talk • Quick tour of Dropwizard functionality written with Groovy & friends instead of pure Java. • Showcase some of the “DevOps” friendly features in Dropwizard for easy setup, deployment and monitoring.
  • 3. This is not a talk about REST Services • Everything I tell you about REST will probably be a lie. • Think JSON services over http.
  • 4. REST Services REST-ful API Design - Ben Hale https://github.com/nebhale/spring-one-2013/tree/master/ rest-ful-api-design Beautiful REST + JSON APIs - Les Hazlewood http://www.slideshare.net/stormpath/rest-jsonapis
  • 5. whoami • Senior Software Engineer at Netflix • Grails developer since 2008
  • 9. Dropwizard stack • Takes mature, well known Java frameworks and glues them together. • Jetty for HTTP • Jersey for REST • Jackson for JSON • Metrics for metrics • Etc. ( Logback, Hibernate, Liquibase, etc )
  • 10. Additional Integrations • Scala • Views ( Freemaker / Mustache ) • Liquibase migrations • Authentication ( http and oAuth2 ) • Dropwizard Spring - https://github.com/ SindicatoSource/dropwizard-spring
  • 11. Who uses Dropwizard? Fraud Detection & Gift Card Services Fault Tolerant Job Scheduler https://github.com/airbnb/chronos Carl Quinn : Dropwizard + Netflix OSS tools http://tekconf.com/conferences/ codemash-2014/how-we-built-acloud-platform-at-riot-games-u
  • 12. Dropwizard + Groovy? • Bloom Health - Insurance carriers data exchange.
 Spring Batch, Dropwizard and Groovy.
 (25x faster than previous system) • Sky Find and Watch - Powers the remote record / watch now functionality • UnderwriteMe - Watch Marcin’s talk!
 http://skillsmatter.com/podcast/home/moderngroovy-enterprise-stack
  • 13. Dropwizard + Groovy? • Editorial Expansion - Time inc. subsidiary in Mexico 
 Gourmet Awards iPhone app backend.
  • 14. Why should I try Dropwizard?
  • 16.
  • 17.
  • 18.
  • 19.
  • 20.
  • 21. Advantages • Scale up only some parts of your application. • Isolate services based depending on their security profiles. • Fault tolerance. • Cloud friendly!
  • 24. Dropwizard with Grails at Sky Find and Watch
  • 25. Performance Dropwizard is a very high performance, low latency framework. http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/
  • 26.
  • 27.
  • 28. Other niceties • Testable. Every part of the system can be tested during development. • Deployment friendly - easy to configure, deploy and monitor. • Pure Java.
  • 30. Lazybones Starter Template • By Kyle Boon from Bloom Health • Available via Lazybones template tool by Peter Ledbrook • You can get Lazybones via gvm
  • 31. Lazybones Starter Template • Gradle build • Spock tests • Hibernate persistance layer • Fat Jars via Shadow ( like Maven’s Shade ) • CodeNarc for clean code • Cobertura for test coverage
  • 32.
  • 33. Tasks • Test the application ./gradlew test • Build a Jar file for deploy ./gradlew shadow • Drop a database ./gradlew dropAll • Setup database ./gradlew migrate • You can add your own like deployToCloud
  • 34. Parts of a Dropwizard Application
  • 36.
  • 37. Services • Like an Application in Grails • Central place where all the other building blocks are connected.
  • 38.
  • 39.
  • 40. Services • The Dropwizard approach to services lets us see one place where all our other components are bound and glued together. • Relationships between other parts must be explicitly declared. There is no magic linking.
  • 41. Configurations • Each service has a configuration that is passed into the run method. • Dropwizard has default configurations for clients, logging and Jetty that can be overwritten
  • 42. Configurations Same jar file, configuration is externalized. ! java -jar application.jar server test.yml java -jar application.jar server stage.yml java -jar application.jar server prod.yml
  • 47. Configuration • Mapped by Jackson. Uses Hibernate Validator. • @Max / @Min • @NotNull • @Size(min=0, max=50) • @Pattern(regex=, flag=) • @Future / @Past • @NotEmpty • @CreditCardNumber
  • 50.
  • 52. Configurations • Configurations are vital because they allow us to make sure we got all the details for our service right. • One config file instead of merged conflict from many sources eliminates confusion and makes it easy to automate / swap out.
  • 53. Resources • Represent a set of service endpoints • Like Controllers in Grails • They are just Jersey Resources:
 
 https://jersey.java.net/nonav/documentation/ latest/user-guide.html#jaxrs-resources
  • 55. Resources • @GET, @POST, @PUT, @DELETE, @HEAD, @OPTIONS, and even @HttpMethod • @Path("/{user}/notifications")
 @PathParam("user") LongParam userId, @QueryParam("count") @DefaultValue("20") IntParam count
  • 57. Resources • Tested not as Unit mocks, but as Jersey components with a real Jersey server. • Similar to the FakeServer in Grails Rest Client • Dropwizard comes with a ResourceTest that works with Mockito / JUnit • I wrote a Spock equivalent available at http:// fbflex.wordpress.com/2013/01/30/dropwizardwith-spock-and-groov/
  • 58.
  • 61.
  • 62. Representations • Lets you formally describe the data flowing in and out of your REST API. • Data Transfer Objects that can be validated. • It gives you a way to easily map them into your database objects either directly or via a DAO. • Recommended approach is to share representations between servers and clients.
  • 63.
  • 64.
  • 65.
  • 66.
  • 67.
  • 68.
  • 69.
  • 70. Representations • The use of representations ensure the contract between our REST endpoints and clients that consume this endpoint. • You could also just skip this and go straight to your other endpoints or JSON friendly database.
  • 72. Metrics • Uses Coda Hale’s own Metrics Library • Integrates with JMX, http, Ganglia and Graphite
  • 73. Metrics @Timed - duration and rate of events @Metered - rate of events @ExceptionMetered - rate of exceptions
  • 76. Metrics • They are first class citizens within Dropwizard. • Very flexible.You can define custom metrics, set Gauges, etc. • It’s about communicating the actual state of your server back to the mothership so it can be coordinated.
  • 77. Logging • Dropwizard has a pretty robust default logging configuration.
  • 78. Logging • We can use the @Slf4j annotation in Groovy
  • 80. Logging • I am lazy. • Don’t realize logs are needed until it is too late. • Logs are time machines to past malfunctions, making them easy to set up allows us to use them.
  • 81. Client Support • Dropwizard has available both the Apache HttpClient and the Jersey Client. • Jersey Client can use same deserialization available to the server
  • 82.
  • 83. We can now use the client within the Resource to fetch http data from other sources
  • 84. Clients • Returns a fully wrapped object that emits metrics. This allows us to monitor how they are used and identify bottlenecks or bugs.
  • 85. Managed Objects • Classes that have a start and end phase attached to the service. • Often have their own configurations. • Easy way to encapsulate integrations into other services / systems.
  • 86.
  • 87.
  • 88. Health Checks • Runtime checks that the service is operating correctly • If an exception is thrown, this is shown on the health monitoring screen • Also throws a 500 error code on the health check page for tools
  • 89.
  • 90.
  • 91.
  • 92.
  • 93. Health Checks • Quick diagnostics on running instance. • Better to kill a sick service than to keep it running and potentially corrupting your data. • Also helps when you are deploying and building out your infrastructure.
  • 94. Other Features • Tasks - Like Grails Scripts • Commands - Jobs that can be invoked via an URL. Lots of power since you’re using the same stack as your runtime service. • Others - Filters, Bundles, etc. http://www.dropwizard.io/manual/
  • 95. Deployment Make Jars, not Wars One jar file from CI to deploy
  • 96. Deploying Dropwizard java $JAVA_OPTS -Ddw.http.port=$PORT -Ddw.http.adminPort=$PORT -jar application.jar server prod.yml
  • 97. Grails Equivalents • Dropwizard Plugin by Burt Beckwith
 http://grails.org/plugin/dropwizard • Health Control Plugin by Kim Betti 
 http://grails.org/plugin/health-control • Validate Config Plugin by Andy Miller
 http://grails.org/plugin/validate-config • Metrics Plugin by Jeff Ellis
 http://grails.org/plugin/yammer-metrics
  • 98. Using Groovy • Less verbose objects. Can use map constructors. • Nice annotations for logging. • Gradle / Spock / Betamax / Lazybones. • Not sure if @CompileStatic has any changes that are significant - 6%
 [ http://kyleboon.org/blog/2013/09/26/doescompile-static-make-your-website-faster/ ]
  • 99. Development • A lot faster since there is very little magic and user interface to test. • Excellent support in IntelliJ for Gradle project and tasks.
  • 100. Final Thoughts • Think about the deployed application. • Grails + Dropwizard. Not Grails or Dropwizard. • This is just mini-scale. What happens when you have 100 services/servers? 1,000? 1,000,000? ( Come work at Netflix! )
  • 101. Thank you • Email : tomaslin@gmail.com • Twitter : @tomaslin • Slides will be posted on my blog: • http://bit.ly/tomaslin
