Analysis of the Spring Boot and Spring Cloud in developing Java cloud applications

The paper is of a review character. It analyzes the possibilities of using the Spring Boot programming framework with the Spring Cloud extension to create cloud applications in Java. The article presents the concepts that have to be dealt with when implementing the application in cloud environments and the technologies that were used in the applications, along with the justification of the choice. Scalability tests were carried out on two applications - monolithic with the use of Spring Boot and scalable with the use of Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. The research carried out in the article showed how to implement a scalable application using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.
