The best feature in Spring Boot is that it's pretty easy to create any project from scratch and we get a lot of boilerplate code from Spring Boot.

Spring Boot's most valuable functionalities include inversion of control, dependency injection, and the ability to gather all services, models, and controllers together for easy connectivity to your REST API, as well as the ability to build a modular response and request system. It seamlessly integrates with various backends, such as SQL, events, and messaging systems, making it a user-friendly and efficient Java tool. Additionally, it functions as a reliable business transaction layer, providing excellent support for front-end and back-end visual tools.

Spring Boot does not have the capability to process large amounts of data, such as thousands or even 10,000 to 50,000 records, faster.

The current state of Spring Boot's cloud layer requires further development, especially for collecting Java functions for cloud platforms like GCP Cloudground. Having to write every single API request in a single class can be a cumbersome and time-consuming task that is not ideal for Java developers. Additionally, having all API calls in one class and making it the main class presents problems with package visibility. Therefore, there is much room for improvement in the Spring Cloud area.

The services we develop are purely synchronous services, so there's a blocking and waiting state. This is a big problem in microservices.
