Where is Spring Boot Useful?
By adopting the Spring Boot framework, Netflix has managed to meet all of these requirements as it provides great experiences such as Data access with spring-data, Complex security management with spring-security, Integration with cloud providers with spring-cloud-aws
The Spring Boot transition is not something we are undertaking alone. We have been in collaboration with Pivotal throughout the process.
To provide a range of non-functional features that are common to large classes of projects (e.g. embedded servers, security, metrics, health checks, externalized configuration)
To provide a radically faster and widely accessible ‘getting started’ experience for all Spring development.
