On October 21th, 2015 we all rejoiced with the return from the past of Marty McFly with his flying car and so on, however in the Vert.x world we were quite sad about our rather old JavaScript support.

Finally, back… This post is the fifth post of the introduction to vert.x blog series, after a not-that-small break. In this post we are going to see how we can use JDBC in a vert.x application.

We see a new trend in development where we are shifting from developing applications to APIs. More and more we see services being offered as REST APIs that we are allowed to consume.

This is a starting guide for securing Vert.x web applications. Standard rules and practices apply to Vert.x apps as if they would to any other web framework.

One of the interesting features of Vert.x is the SockJS event bus bridge. It allows external applications to communicate with Vert.x event bus using Websockets.

Let’s refresh our mind about what we developed so far in the introduction to vert.x series. We forgot an important task. We didn’t test the API.

This post is part of the Introduction to Vert.x series. Let’s go a bit further this time and develop a CRUD-ish application

In our previous post, we developed a very simple Vert.x 3 application, and saw how this application can be tested, packaged and executed. That was nice, wasn’t it?

Let’s say, you heard someone saying that Vert.x is awesome. Ok great, but you may want to try it by yourself. Well, the next natural question is “where do I start ?”
