Modernize Your Spring Applications Without Disrupting the Business
Migrating Spring applications can be complex, time-consuming, and risky. Dependency shifts, namespace changes, Java runtime requirements, and testing demands can quickly turn a straightforward upgrade into a major modernization project.
OpenLogic provides the expertise needed to seamlessly move to a supported, secure, and maintainable Spring environment.
Don’t Let a Spring Migration Derail Your Dev Team
Spring migrations can be notoriously difficult. Organizations frequently encounter issues stemming from:
- API deprecations and removed functionality
- Jakarta EE namespace changes
- Spring Security configuration changes
- Dependency and library incompatibilities
- Java runtime requirements
- Integrations with databases, messaging systems, and third-party applications
- Legacy testing gaps that increase migration risk
Get Assistance for Spring Framework and Spring Boot Migrations
Major version migrations often introduce new requirements and architectural changes. After identifying dependency conflicts, deprecated functionality, and compatibility issues, we upgrade your Spring deployments to supported versions, including third-party libraries, security integrations, and testing frameworks.
Our Enterprise Architects work directly in your environment to help ensure a successful production rollout including:
- Application Modernization: Refactor aging Spring applications to improve maintainability, performance, and scalability.
- Java Upgrade Alignment: Whether you're moving from Java 8 or Java 11 to Java 17 or Java 21, we can coordinate Spring and Java modernization efforts to reduce complexity and accelerate adoption.
- Long-Term Support for EOL Spring: Can’t upgrade immediately? Protect your application with Spring LTS while you plan your next steps.

Current State Analysis
We analyze your existing Spring applications, architecture, dependencies, Java versions, infrastructure, and testing readiness to identify migration requirements and risks.
Migration Plan and Scope Definition
Working as an extension of your team, we define success criteria, project scope, responsibilities, timelines, testing requirements, and production rollout strategies. Depending on your needs, Enterprise Architects can play more of an advisory role or offer hands-on-keyboard support.
Migration Execution
During this phase of the engagement, we work directly with you to:
- Upgrade Spring Framework and/or Spring Boot versions
- Resolve dependency conflicts
- Update application configurations
- Remediate compatibility issues
- Address Java upgrade requirements
- Implement migration best practices
Validation & Production Readiness
We support testing, performance validation, deployment planning, and production cutovers to help ensure a smooth transition. OpenLogic also helps customers account for any compliance validation or recertification activities triggered by a version change, including security reviews, audit evidence updates, SBOM refreshes, and governance approvals, helping prevent delays at deployment time.
Knowledge Transfer
Before project completion, we provide documentation and knowledge transfer so your teams can confidently support the upgraded environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
End-of-life Spring versions no longer receive community maintenance, bug fixes, or security updates. Remaining on older releases can increase risk, lead to compliance audit failures, and make future upgrades more difficult.
Spring Boot migrations often involve dependency updates, Java version changes, API deprecations, configuration changes, and extensive testing. Large application portfolios may also have significant customization that adds complexity.
Yes. OpenLogic provides technical support and LTS for organizations that need additional time to plan and execute migrations while maintaining security and operational stability.
Absolutely. Spring and Java modernizations are frequently connected initiatives. Our architects can help organizations align both upgrade paths to accelerate delivery.
