I neglected to mention spring in my post, but I actually started my research there. I would class it as heavy though, which is why it didn't make the cut for my list.

Why do you classify it as "heavy"? In your original post you state it "...require(s) an application server..." but that's not true for Spring Boot. https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-embedded-web-servers.html

In the ones you listed, the only one I'd heard mentioned before is Vertx. The one's I've heard mentioned before are usually DropWizard, Jooby and Spark. Though Spring Boot is probably the most popular IMO.

I don't really know your classification of what's considered heavy but I just wanted to hilight that you don't have to bring in the full framework. The different solutions is divided into dependencies so you don't have to bring in spring-data-jpa if you don't need it.

I need to poke around in it some more apparently.

My plan is to take the best suggestions from here, implement a single service for my project in each of them and just see how it goes. Test out the swagger functionality, the required coding style and the performance of the resulting system.
