Spring Boot Development Patterns

Spring Boot architecture and API patterns for scalable, production-grade services.

When to Activate

• Building REST APIs with Spring MVC or WebFlux
• Structuring adapters → use cases → domain (hexagonal / ports & adapters)
• Configuring Spring Data JPA, caching, or async processing
• Adding validation, exception handling, or pagination
• Setting up profiles for dev/staging/production environments
• Implementing event-driven patterns with Spring Events or Kafka
