Spring boot can be about as intrusive as the built in grpc server. This is just an, at best, outdated take.

On one level, it is not an outdated take. There is a LOT of old Java out there: out of date JDKs, out of date versions of frameworks. There is still a lot of Struts 1.1 out there.

I think our industry would look a lot different if more companies were keeping their Java apps up to date.
