# druid vs spring-boot

druid and spring-boot share 8 technologies: JAX-RS, servlet-api, Hibernate, org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-api, slf4j-simple, org.slf4j:slf4j-api, org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core, and io.opentelemetry:opentelemetry-sdk. Both are written in Java.

- [apache/druid](https://seerepo.com/r/apache/druid): Apache Druid: a high performance real-time analytics database.
- [spring-projects/spring-boot](https://seerepo.com/r/spring-projects/spring-boot): Spring Boot helps you to create Spring-powered, production-grade applications and services with absolute minimum fuss.
