Spring Boot overview

What is Spring Boot?

Spring Boot helps businesses create stand-alone, production-grade Spring applications in far less time than traditional methods. It's ideal for experienced Java developers and DevOps who want to get started with Spring but avoid the configuration overhead of XML.

Spring Boot instantly configures the application with sensible defaults, so that users can get started with a minimum fuss. Team members can then customize the application as needed, knowing that it will just work, because Spring Boot is based on tried and tested enterprise open source technologies.

Spring Boot makes it easy to add features such as metrics and health checks to your application - no code generation required! And you can externalize configuration settings in files or even cloud services like Amazon S3 or Microsoft Azure Blob Storage.
