Create a plugin on datacenter using Spring boot

When developing a datacenter plugin we currently use java core as a back end language, but is there a possibility to use Spring Boot when developing server or datacenter addons, as we use Spring Boot to develop cloud addons.

I dont think this is possible.

While you can’t use spring boot as mentioned by @NielAmarAFlores, each P2 plugin (framework for DC and Server plugins) is running in its own isolated Spring context, so you can often leverage many Spring framework features. You can find more information here:

But you won’t be able to use spring web or spring data, because these concerns are handled in different way by the product (Jira, Confluence, etc).
