A book CRUD web service back-end (use with front-end repository called ui-service)
As a book collector I want the ability to create, and keep up to date, a catalogue of all my books. The catalogue service should provide a list of all catalogued books from where I need to be able to add new books, update existing information and remove books.
Provide a multi-tier catalogue solution to add, edit, delete, and view current books. Build two separate Spring Boot services for an UI (User Interface) and Management Layer, with supporting DB. UI service must integrate the Management service's API utilizing a Jax-RS Client. Services should be packaged as executable jars, with all dependencies included. Scripts (Linux or Win) for service execution will be required.
