Extending the Platform with Spring Boot and Cloud Foundry
13 likes1,957 views
The document discusses the challenges of legacy applications and culture in the context of cloud-native development, emphasizing the importance of platform engineering to support application health and reduce technical debt. It outlines strategies for implementing service brokers, specifically through an Amazon S3 example, and provides guidance on creating custom Spring Boot starter projects to streamline the consumption of services. Ultimately, the presentation advocates for minimizing redundancy early in microservice architectures to enhance platform value and adaptability.
