## What it is
A Spring Boot starter project for Apache Dubbo that provides auto-configuration, annotation-driven setup, and production-ready actuator features for using Dubbo as an RPC framework in Spring Boot applications. The repository has been archived and all implementations have been moved into the main apache/dubbo repository.

## Use cases
- integrate dubbo rpc into a spring boot application
- auto-configure dubbo with spring boot annotations
- add dubbo health checks via spring boot actuator
- externalized configuration for dubbo in spring boot
- build microservices with dubbo and spring boot
- expose dubbo services as spring boot beans

## When to choose
- you are maintaining a legacy Spring Boot 2.x application already using dubbo-spring-boot-starter 2.7.x
- you need the historical documentation or source for the standalone Spring Boot integration

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use the merged apache/dubbo repository instead
- you need Dubbo 3.x features like Triple protocol, application-level service discovery, or proxyless mesh
- you are not using Spring Boot or the JVM

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: abandoned
- function: rpc, microservices, middleware, service-discovery, api-gateway, monitoring
- domain: microservices, backend, developer-tools
- platform: jvm
- tags: dubbo, spring-boot-starter, auto-configuration, actuator, service-governance, archived-repo, spring-boot, docker, kubernetes
