Combining Spring Boot and the Hawaii production-ready features and auto configuration brings even more power and simplicity to developers, without sacrificing flexibility.

The Hawaii Framework also provides various Spring Boot Starters to automatically include the needed dependencies and trigger the auto configuration of the Hawaii production-ready features.

But it is important to mention that most of the Hawaii features can also used without using Spring Boot. In that case the desired features need to be configured manually by defining the appropriate Spring beans inside the application’s context.
