Sometimes, it can be difficult to make a choice from various available projects. Also, Distributed systems are bit complex as compared to monolith applications. It is also bit difficult to log and trace in distributed or microservice based architectures. But, we have plenty of tools for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Spring is a framework for App developers and its loaded with features like Dependency injection and being able to build light weight services on the go and use of beans and annotation stands out as part of Spring Framework and Spring MVC. Highly recommended for high velocity projects written in JAVA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Spring can be a little difficult for people developing first time in Java. It may have lot of connects behind beans and annotations that may take time to really get you hooked. Thanks to lots of free tutorials by Spring and on youtube that should be helpful. Spring has some great documentation and a large community on Github/Stackoverflow so that shall solve problems.

In some niche case with big number of connection, or require asynchronous request. Spring framework is limited to its thread pool and sync API
And in micro services, with service mesh and container, some feature of spring is not needed
If you are in need of control your own object creation / deletion, or you want to control your thread. you are in trouble. Spring is not design for this kind of complex application. It is still servlet based framework. And framework want to control every thing except your data model Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have worked with Spring MVC for a while and the various configurations I had to make each time to get it right was hindering my speed and quality. I was surprised at the ability of Spring Boot to make every aspect of web application development simple and straightforward as I learnt it. IoC is achieved easily without hassle and integrating with database and UI is a cake walk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing about Spring Boot that's both an advantage and a disadvantage is that it's vastness. Also spring boot takes complete control over the application giving you less room for customization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With cloud-native applications come so many challenges, and if addressed right could lead to a situation more worse than monolith applications. Spring is a one-stop solution with rich integration with best cloud-native open source projects out there. Its handles problem of cloud infrastructure components like so well that people almost feel that they are working on just core Java. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Should embrace modular approach for Spring Cloud libraries, maybe increasing chances for people do have more customized libraries especially which are less in size. Startup times are good but can still be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
