Learn how to reduce your Spring Boot startup time from 30 seconds to just a few seconds!
In this video, I share 8 proven optimization tips with real-world examples that can help you ace your Java/Spring Boot interview and improve production performance.
🛠 Topics Covered:
Lazy Initialization – Load beans only when needed.
Example: spring.main.lazy-initialization=true in application.properties.
Optimized Component Scanning – Narrow down package scanning.
Example: @ComponentScan("com.myapp.service").
Remove Unused Auto-Configurations – Use spring.autoconfigure.exclude to skip unnecessary configs.
Profile-based Beans – Load only environment-specific beans.
Example: @Profile("dev").
Parallel Bean Initialization – Enable spring.threads.virtual.enabled=true.
Spring Context Indexer – Add spring-context-indexer dependency for faster bean scanning.
Reduce Jars in Classpath – Trim unused dependencies in pom.xml or build.gradle.
GraalVM Native Image – Compile your Spring Boot app to a native executable for instant startup.
