In reply to Piotr Mińkowski. Thanks for reply. No, I meant if Micronaut offers functionality which Spring Cloud provides.

Hi. Thanks – fixed 🙂
Well, it has some advantages, of course Spring has also some advantages over Micronaut 🙂 Micronaut is a framework designed especially for building microservices. It is smaller, has better performance (RAM, throuhput – netty). Micronaut introduced some new features in comparison to Spring, for example @ThreadLocal beans (https://piotrminkowski.wordpress.com/2019/04/15/micronaut-tutorial-beans-and-scopes/). But generally there are the details. Spring is still the leader.
Spring cloud – you mean use Spring Cloud together with Micronaut? This a little bit different philosophy, so I would not be sure to use them together. Of course, you can Micronaut with Spring beans, technically it is not a problem https://docs.micronaut.io/latest/guide/index.html#springBeans.

Good article.
Should be
“… you should NOT have any problems with building a simple…”
But I am wondering does Micronaut has any advantages over Spring considering in use it looks almost the same as the latter, for a simple app? What about Spring Cloud alternatives if one wants to use it?
