<p><strong>Hello DineshonJava readers and followers</strong>, Now we are in year 2018. This year, I hope, Many of java developers have made some resolution for this year. If you have made resolution for learning let&#8217;s see what top 10 things required for java programmer in 2018. In <strong><a href="https://dineshonjava.com/top-10-frameworks-designs-must-learn-2018/">previous article</a></strong>, I have mentioned <strong><a href="https://dineshonjava.com/top-10-frameworks-designs-must-learn-2018/">top 10 frameworks</a></strong> you must learn in this year.</p>
<p>I got major responses and queries about articles. Majority, I got queries about the which frameworks suitable for career and which one has major job opportunities. There are some frameworks are in good demand in the software industry.</p>
<p>Previous year 2017 was very special for me, because my book on the Spring 5 has been published. The title of this book is &#8220;<strong>Spring 5 Design Patterns</strong>&#8220;. This book is available on the <strong><a href="https://www.amazon.in/Spring-Design-Patterns-Dinesh-Rajput/dp/1788299450/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&;ie=UTF8&;qid=1512607966&;sr=1-1&;keywords=dinesh+rajput">Amazon</a></strong> website and also purchase in other websites.</p>

<h2>10 Things Required for Java Programmers in 2018</h2>
<p>Let&#8217;s see the following top 10 things are required to learn in this year.</p>
<h2>Docker</h2>
<p>There are many frameworks available in the market but some of frameworks have great demand in the market. Docker one of the containerization framework, it&#8217;s demand is increasing continuously, so its right time to decide to learn in this year 2018. I have started to learn Docker and Microservices with Docker.</p>
<p>Docker is the world’s leading software containerization platform. Docker is the company driving the container movement and the only container platform provider to address every application across the hybrid cloud.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3811" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/docker.png" alt="docker" width="269" height="201" /></p>
<h2>Git</h2>
<p>It is code repository platform and distributed version control system. It is required to learn if you want to sustain in the software industry because more 70 to 80% companies are staring to use this system for version controlling.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://dineshonjava.com/what-is-github-and-creating-repository-and-branches-on-git/">Git</a> </strong>is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.</p>
<p>Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. It outclasses SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient staging areas, and multiple workflows.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-3819 size-medium" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Git-Logo-2Color-300x125.png" alt="git" width="300" height="125" /></p>
<h2>Unit Testing</h2>
<p>JUnit test cases are also important if you are working as a software developer.</p>
<p>Unit Testing is a level of software testing where individual units/ components of a software are tested. The purpose is to validate that each unit of the software performs as designed.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3820" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/unit-testing.jpg" alt="unit testing" width="358" height="541" /></p>
<h2>Jenkins</h2>
<p>Jenkins is a software that allows continuous integration. Jenkins will be installed on a server where the central build will take place.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3821" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/jenkins.png" alt="Jenkins" width="288" height="175" /></p>
<h2>CI/CD/CD (Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery / Continuous Deployment)</h2>
<p>The adoption of CI/CD has changed how developers and testers ship software. These stages are part of a delivery pipeline. In <strong>Continuous integration</strong>, Developers practicing continuous integration merge their changes back to the main branch as often as possible. Continuous integration puts a great emphasis on testing automation to check that the application is not broken whenever new commits are integrated into the main branch.</p>
<p>In <strong>Continuous delivery</strong>, It makes sure that you can release new changes to your customers quickly in a sustainable way. you can decide to release daily, weekly, fortnightly, or whatever suits your business requirements.</p>
<p><strong>Continuous Deployment</strong> goes one step further than continuous delivery. With this practice, every change that passes all stages of your production pipeline is released to your customers.</p>

<h2>Java 8/9</h2>
<p>Learning Java 8 is also important because after java 5 it has major changes inducing lot of new features like Lambda etc. The JDK 9 brings a lot of goodies in terms of modules, Jigsaw, Reactive Streams, Process API, HTTP2 client, JShell, and API improvements like collection factory methods</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2359" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/java.png" alt="" width="144" height="117" /></p>
<h2>Rest Webservices</h2>
<p>This is one skill which is highly demanded in Software world and there are not many people who know both Java and REST well.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://dineshonjava.com/jax-rs-web-service-tutorial/">RESTful web services</a> </strong>are built to work best on the Web. Representational State Transfer (REST) is an architectural style that specifies constraints, such as the uniform interface, that if applied to a web service induce desirable properties, such as performance, scalability, and modifiability, that enable services to work best on the Web.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1140" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/rest-api.jpg" alt="rest-api" width="320" height="81" /></p>
<h2>Kafka</h2>
<p>Kafka is a messaging system that is designed to be fast, scalable, and durable. It is an open-source stream processing platform. Apache Kafka originated at LinkedIn and later became an open-source Apache project in 2011, then a first-class Apache project in 2012. Kafka is written in Scala and Java. It aims at providing a high-throughput, low-latency platform for handling real-time data feeds.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3823" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/kafka.png" alt="kafka" width="225" height="225" /></p>
<h2>Spark</h2>
<p>This is another big data framework which is gaining popularity. Apache Spark is a fast, in-memory data processing engine with elegant and expressive development APIs to allow data workers to efficiently execute streaming, machine learning or SQL workloads that require fast iterative access to datasets.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3812" src="https://dineshonjava.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/spark-logo-trademark.png" alt="Apache Spark" width="376" height="200" /></p>
<p>Learning these frameworks will not only improve your chances of getting a job but also opens many doors of opportunities. Additionally, Scala is one of functional programming language can add benefits to your career growth. Apache Spark is also a good choice to learn in this year.</p>
