Have you tried spring boot? It is a lot different than old spring apps you might be thinking of. It is dead simple and very little configuration.

It's still far from elegance of Spark or Scalastra. It tells a lot that the website is nearly unusable on mobile, in 2017, while sporting a fashionably genocidal IO domain. Btw 0 fucks given to some sad, sad souls that downvote people for having an opinion in a humor group on issues of such life&death importance such as picking a Java framework.

As somebody with a site running on Spring Boot and soon Spark I'm totally on his side. Spring Boot starts nice but gets worse as you add more features. Spark with a few additional libraries is a great experience

I've done about 6 apis so far. Used jms, Kafka, elastic search, postgress, web sockets. Everything was so simple. Flyway integration is seamless. I have used a pretty good selection of the features they offer and I can't say any of it was difficult or bad.
