In the previous microservice tutorial, we have learned how microservices communicate with each other using RestTemplate. In this tutorial, we will learn how one microservice communicates with another via Feign Client. This is the third part of the Microservice Communication series.

What Is a Feign Client?

Netflix provides Feign as an abstraction over REST-based calls, by which microservices can communicate with each other, but developers don’t have to bother about REST internal details.
