Frequently Asked Questions
What is Spring Boot development?
Spring Boot is a Java framework that simplifies building production-ready applications. Spring Boot development involves creating enterprise Java applications, REST APIs, microservices, and backend systems with convention-over-configuration, embedded servers, and extensive ecosystem support.
How much does Spring Boot development cost?
Spring Boot development typically costs $110-160 per hour. A basic API starts around $15,000-30,000, while enterprise applications with security, messaging, and distributed systems range from $50,000-200,000+. Java/Spring projects tend to be larger in scope and budget.
Spring Boot vs Node.js vs Python: which should I choose?
Choose Spring Boot for: enterprise requirements, existing Java teams, complex business logic, or strong typing needs. Choose Node.js for: real-time applications, JavaScript full-stack. Choose Python for: AI/ML, data processing, rapid prototyping. Spring excels in large enterprise systems.
Do you work with Spring Cloud and microservices?
Yes. I implement Spring Cloud for: service discovery (Eureka), configuration (Config Server), API gateway (Spring Cloud Gateway), circuit breakers (Resilience4j), and distributed tracing (Sleuth/Zipkin). Spring Cloud is enterprise-grade for microservices.
Can you modernize a legacy Spring application?
Yes. I handle: Spring Boot 2 to 3 migration, Java 8 to 17+ upgrades, XML to annotation-based configuration, monolith to microservices decomposition, and containerization. I’ve modernized Spring applications running for 10+ years.
