Master Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud - Step 03 – Enhance Limits Service to Get Configuration from Appl

The video tutorial explains how to configure limits in a Spring Boot application using application properties. It covers setting minimum and maximum values, using configuration properties, creating a configuration class, and autowiring it into the controller. The tutorial also demonstrates testing configuration changes and preparing the limit service for integration with a Spring Cloud Config server.

What is the main advantage of using application properties for configuration in Spring Boot?

• It improves the performance of the application.

• It allows for dynamic changes without restarting the application.

• It reduces the size of the application code.

• It makes the application more secure.

Which annotation is used to bind properties from a file to a class in Spring Boot?

• @Autowired

• @Value

• @Component

• @ConfigurationProperties

Why is it necessary to generate setters for configuration properties in Spring Boot?

• To allow the properties to be serialized.

• To ensure the application compiles without errors.

• To allow Spring Boot to modify the properties at runtime.

• To enable the properties to be read from the application file.

What is the purpose of auto-wiring a configuration in Spring Boot?

• To improve the application's performance.

• To automatically generate configuration files.

• To inject configuration values into components.

• To enhance the security of the application.

What tool is mentioned as being used to automatically pick up code changes in the application?

• Spring Boot DevTools

• Maven

• Gradle

• Jenkins

What is the next step after setting up the limit service in the tutorial?

• Deploying the application to a server

• Implementing security features

• Setting up a Spring Cloud Config server

• Connecting to a database

What happens when you change the values in the application properties and refresh the application?

• The application needs to be restarted manually.

• The application crashes.

• The new values are ignored.

• The application automatically picks up the new values.
