To be able to create and run this application, we will need to set up a build tool. For this book, it will be Apache Maven; however, Gradle, Ant, or any other alternative will work perfectly as well. We will then identify some key parts of the application code and, finally, we will insert some data to ensure that our application is usable before investigating its performance.
