How to convert a CSV file to XLSX

I wrote this utility for a friend of mine who wanted to convert large (~50MB) CSV files to XLSX. The CSV files had comma "," as a delimiter. I have used apache poi utility in this program. https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/poi/release/RELEASE-NOTES.txt This code uses SXSSFWorkbook class. The SXSSFWorkbook class uses "BigGridDemo" strategy, where only portions being processed are kept in memory. There are temporary files created which store the rest of the temporary data. setCompressTempFiles() method allows these temp files to be compressed. The size of these files can get quite large. The data to be converted was UTF-8 encoded data. So, we are using  OutputStreamWriter, where we specify the encoding of the data. If you do not need the encoding, just remove that parameter from the constructor call of OutputStreamWriter. The system where this ran, supported Java 7, so have not used features in java 8, such as try with exceptions. import java.io.*; im...

Five important aspects of microservices

  5 important aspects/components of microservices architecture 1. Microservices - Services that are built small enough so that their entire lifecycle can be owned and managed by a small team. 2. Service Discovery - A mechanism of how microservices can locate each other over network.  Example : if Microservice A wants to call microservice B:  It will use service discovery mechanism to fetch IP address and port of B and then call B. Implementations : ZooKeeper, Consul, etcd, Eureka 3. External configuration - Enable services to run on various environments without a code modification inside the service. Enable different configuration values for those services for different environments.  Dynamically change configurations without changing application code or restart/redeploy application. Example - DB credentials and other details, application properties, environment variables for Dev, QA and Prod env. Implementations : Consul, Spring cloud (enables various datastores ...
