Abstract

The rise of real-time data processing has become pivotal in modern web applications, enhancing user experience by providing instantaneous updates and interactions. This abstract explores the integration of Spring Boot and Web Sockets to facilitate real-time data communication and processing. Spring Boot, known for its robust and comprehensive framework for building Java applications, combined with Web Sockets, a protocol offering full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection, provides a powerful solution for real-time applications. This study delves into the architecture, implementation strategies, and performance considerations of leveraging Spring Boot with Web Sockets. Key areas of focus include the configuration of Web Socket endpoints, handling concurrent user connections, and ensuring data consistency and integrity. The findings demonstrate that using Spring Boot and Web Sockets not only simplifies the development process but also significantly enhances the efficiency and responsiveness of real-time applications. Through practical examples and performance benchmarks, this paper aims to offer valuable insights for developers and architects aiming to implement real-time data processing systems in their applications.
