Spring into DBOS for Java

DBOS Transact Java 0.8 introduces a Spring Boot Starter that automates much of the configuration, lifecycle management, and proxy registration previously required to use DBOS in Java applications. The integration uses Spring Boot auto-configuration to create DBOS-related beans from application properties while still allowing developers to override defaults when needed. It also relies on Spring AOP to handle durable workflow and step bookkeeping for methods annotated with @Workflow and @Step, removing the need for manually created proxies or separate service interfaces. Developers must avoid invoking workflow or step methods through direct this references because doing so bypasses proxies; Spring’s self-injection approach using @Autowired and @Lazy can provide access to the proxied service safely. Future releases are expected to add Transactional Steps, combining database updates and recorded step results in one transaction through Spring’s transaction-management infrastructure.
