Quick spring boot microservice API using Telosys generator

In this story, we are going to generate base spring boot Rest API microservice code using Telosys code generator.

When working in a microservices environment, it is quite common to create services with the same architecture. This means that a lot of time is wasted doing repetitive code before focusing on the business logic.

One practical solution is to set up a tool/mechanism that will allow to quickly create and update microservices with the common code base.

Telosys is a good choice to build the components of our microservices.
