Spring Boot FAQ: Top Questions

Spring Boot makes it easy to connect to a database using Spring Data JPA. You just configure the datasource properties and include the appropriate starter.

🗺️ Steps:

1. Add spring-boot-starter-data-jpa dependency.
2. Set datasource properties in application.properties.
3. Create an entity and repository interface.

📥 Example:

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:mem:test
spring.datasource.driverClassName=org.h2.Driver
spring.datasource.username=sa
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect

🏆 Expected Output:

Database auto-configured and ready for use via repository interfaces.

🛠️ Use Cases:

• Rapid database application setup.
• Using in-memory databases for testing.
