Building an enterprise product on top of Spring Boot
summary
Flowable builds its enterprise platform on Spring Boot and the open‑source Flowable engines, shipping Spring Boot starters that auto‑wire REST APIs, data sources, transactions and optional integrations (Elastic, Kafka, Rabbit). Deployments include Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss, standalone JAR, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, security uses Spring Security with LDAP, OAuth2, Basic and pluggable custom auth, and testing runs across ~10 different databases in CI. The product splits runtime (open source) from UI/tooling (enterprise), uses license checks at boot, and prototypes Spring Native to boot in <1s.
