Explore Spring Boot's integration with Dapr in a cloud-native, polyglot environment through this conference talk from Spring I/O 2023. Dive into the challenges of managing diverse database drivers and exposing metrics across different programming languages. Learn how Dapr provides cloud-native interfaces and components that allow developers to focus on coding features rather than infrastructure concerns. Discover how to decouple infrastructure from application implementation, enabling rapid iteration and feature development without worrying about language-specific drivers or libraries. Follow along with a live demo running on Kubernetes that showcases various Dapr components and their integration with Spring Boot. Gain insights into platform engineering on Kubernetes, polyglot relationships, and the benefits of using Dapr in complex, distributed applications.
