Spring Boot Reviews

Spring Boot is used for microservices and web apps.

Spring Boot is a highly modular and versatile framework with excellent inversion of control and dependency management features. It also implements the popular MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern and offers other useful design patterns, such as the active system via Spring Security. The framework is excellent for developing black feed applications, and developer tools and monitoring systems are also available. Additionally, Spring Cloud is a fantastic tool for writing code for cloud platforms like GCP Cloudgram, as it facilitates the rapid development of APIs.

Spring Boot's most valuable functionalities include inversion of control, dependency injection, and the ability to gather all services, models, and controllers together for easy connectivity to your REST API, as well as the ability to build a modular response and request system. It seamlessly integrates with various backends, such as SQL, events, and messaging systems, making it a user-friendly and efficient Java tool. Additionally, it functions as a reliable business transaction layer, providing excellent support for front-end and back-end visual tools.

We started using Spring Boot because we wanted to implement the microservice- based architecture. We selected Spring Boot to develop our services using the Spring framework.

We deploy the solution on-premises and on the cloud. On the cloud, we deploy it through Azure and AWS. We've also deployed it on PCF, which is a cloud agnostic platform.

We're using version 2.x.

There are 130 members in my organization who use String Boot. These users include the development team, the testing team, the administration team, and the deployment team.

It's annotation-based for developing the framework, which minimizes a lot of coding. It also improves the time to market and makes it easily deployable and configurable. We can provide security easily and develop the CQRS pattern.

Spring Boot is a Java Framework, and it offers dependency management for Maven and Gradle, but we use it as a Maven project. We're a massive bank, and I estimate that 95 percent of Java projects use the Spring Boot Framework. It's upwards of 40,000 users.

Spring Boot provides an all-in-one solution for the libraries needed to create a Win app. It covers all the aspects, including validation, security, etc. It provides all those features out-of-the-box. You can do almost everything with Spring Boot. 

We use this solution for web applications and to handle data relevant to our customers. 

This solution is really user friendly. In terms of prototyping, it's really fast to build the applications we want to test to complete a proof of concept. In this regard, Spring Boot is really a good framework compared to Java EE because it has less boilerplate codes, and we program conventions over configurations.

We primarily used the solution for web applications. 

The capabilities of the solution are very useful.

I personally am not a fan of the solution and don't like much of the tool.

It is easy to set up the solution.

The solution can scale. 

It is stable. 

We use Spring Boot to create different microservices. The configuration is very easy. We also make use of the in-built server. Spring Boot Two has reactive programming and that is valuable for microservices development. We have more than 1,000 users supported by Spring Boot. 

We use this solution on-premise as well as on the public cloud.

The community surrounding Spring Boot is really good. If you face any issue with Spring Boot, you will get the answer from the community. Spring Boot also provides smooth integration with other solutions. A module is provided for each integration including for Kafka and DB.

I primarily rely on Spring Boot as the core microservices framework, used for creating myriad solutions for health care and for the financial services industries. Environments change, depending on client commitments and budgets, but Spring Boot remains as the successful nexus for all development.

I have used it for both SQL and NoSQL solutions, including both caching and non-caching environments. With over 20 Spring modules to select for possible augmentation of the basic Spring Boot platform, there is nearly always a solution available.

In cases, where some additional, narrow functionality is still lacking, many existing solutions can be integrated into the Spring Boot Java framework, even if that functionality is not part of an official Spring Boot add-on module.

Spring Boot has sped time to market and has also improved testability, hence also improving the quality of deployed solutions. By eliminating the need for XML configuration, Spring Boot has also been instrumental in improving application performance, since this shift away from XML has provided an impetus to migrate from SOAP to RESTful services.

Also, Spring Boot has facilitated cloud migrations, since now the application can be deployed as a simple JAR file. Where Spring Boot has not helped has been with clients, who insist on moving away from Java (and .NET), towards lighter-weight solutions, such as NodeJS.

We use the solution to manage our microservices. It helped us develop a web application portal for a financial company.

We are a financial technology company. We chose Spring Boot because it provides additional security layers, essential for the sector. Moreover, it offers powerful tools and technologies that enable us to focus on specific microservices. It is crucial because the banking industry and financial technology typically rely on a monolithic architecture, where the failure of one service affects the entire system. However, with Spring Boot, a cache in one microservice only impacts that particular service while the others remain unaffected. It is significant considering the large number of users who utilize banking applications.
