Find out in this report how the two Java Frameworks solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the ease of integration with other Oracle products."
"The best part of Oracle ADF is being able to easily write code in Java with JavaBean files."
"It's database-centric, and it's seemingly easy to use the model–view–controller pattern that's built-in."
"We can create objects that allow us to develop pages and applications very rapidly."
"There are several valuable features. First is the fast deployment. Also the ease of use."
"The most valuable feature of the Oracle Application Development Framework is the rapid development and the security it provides."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the business components."
"The power of Oracle ADF is in the business components."
"Spring Boot could improve its integration with the major cloud providers. Connectivity with cloud solutions isn't easy compared to other frameworks like Django and Python."
"The solution is easy to use; I primarily employ integrated templates such as the REST template."
"Spring Boot's main feature is that it's great for DevOps because you can write your own application. You don't need to install Apache Tomcat. You can create your project easily with a few clicks."
"The simplicity is excellent."
"We like that it is an open-source tool."
"This is a stable solution that is being used in the HR space."
"The most valuable feature of Spring Boot is all the interactions to various applications happen using Spring Boot."
"The configuration setup in Spring Boot is pretty simplified compared to Hibernate ORM."
"Lacks tailoring to geographic regional differences and consistent integration with third parties."
"The performance of this solution needs to be improved because it is very slow."
"You need to have Oracle ADF on-premises to build a big project. You need to have a dependable front-end application."
"I use JDeveloper along with ADF and, unfortunately, JDeveloper is a very slow tool. It takes a lot of time to accomplish things with it during both development and deployment. I hope that Oracle will improve JDeveloper to make it run faster."
"The UI is very slow and not up to market standard."
"Oracle ADF needs more components and the layout can be improved."
"The application needs to be more lightweight and the performance improved."
"Oracle Application Development Framework is set to go out of support over the next three years but they should provide support for the solution for the longer term. Additionally, there needs to be more overall optimization and specifically in webpage rendering. The solution uses a lot of resources, and in order for them to move forward, they would have to create a smaller resource impact."
"We'd like them to develop more supporting testing."
"They should include tutorial videos for learning new features."
"This solution could be improved if there were more libraries available. We would also like more mobile platform functionality using low levels of code."
"If you want to create large microservices applications, you need to connect several applications and services to each other. It is very complicated, and Spring Boot does not have an integrated solution for it."
"The services we develop are purely synchronous services, so there's a blocking and waiting state. This is a big problem in microservices."
"Spring Boot is lacking visibility in terms of how that business process or business rule would look within your application. Because everything has been embedded within the code itself, it disables the visibility. the ability to maintain or even support a specific functionality in a user-friendly manner, where a developer can come up and just adjust that part of that process."
"When the dependencies within those starter packages clash, mismatch or have a hazard, it is hard to solve the issue."
"When we change versions, we run into issues."
