The PetClinic application contains a few componets (See architecture diagram at the bottom for detais):

• The React frontend web application
• The node.js Express application acting as a proxy for the React web application.
• The Spring Boot backend application.
• The Python application for address lookup from an Elasticsearch cluster.

A docker compose allows the user to run the application, backed with Mysql as the data layer, with Elastic APM and Beat instrumentation enabled. The following services are deployed:

• Pet Clinic via embedded Tomcat with REST API. Instrument with Elastic Java Agent.
• React UI for Pet Clinic using above. Instrument with Elastic RUM Agent.
• Elasticsearch
• Kibana
• MySQL

ES_VERSION=6.4.2 docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up

See instructions for each of the components of the application.

First of all, set your Elasticsearch cluster information inside the script bin/setAPMenv.sh and run the script. All the components rely on the environment variables to connect to your Elasticsearch cluster.

	pip install gunicorn json-logging-py
	pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
        python data_load.py
	gunicorn --config gunicorn.conf --log-config logging.conf -b :5000 server:app
