Host Admin Dashboard with Spring Boot: Application Activity History

Summary

Deploy an admin dashboard built with Spring Boot on Ample using the transactional workflows pattern. This setup utilizes an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, with a managed PostgreSQL 16 database auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL. It has been verified on Spring Boot: an optimistic version check and an event row is written in the same transaction, a stale update rejected, and a history query over the application-owned events.

Representative Queries

• Host admin dashboard with Spring Boot: application activity history
• Where can I host Admin dashboard built with Spring Boot?
• I need an application-owned event schema and tested history queries; not native platform audit logs.

Resource Requirements

• Compute
• Postgres

Infrastructure Requirements

• Compute: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request.
• Postgres: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database.

Execution Status

Ready

Prerequisites

• A Spring Boot project that builds and starts with documented commands producing one application jar.
• A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime.
• An Ample account token with necessary permissions.

Tested Configuration

• Template: jvm-21
• Runtime: java
• Size: s-1vcpu-2gb
• Build: ./mvnw -q -DskipTests package
• Start: java -jar $(ls target/*.jar | grep -v -- '-plain' | head -n 1)

Workflow Steps

1. Build and Start: ./mvnw -q -DskipTests package
2. Implement the Pattern on PostgreSQL: Copy the optimistic version check and event row handling into your schema.
3. Deploy: Execute deployment using ample deploy . --name --public.
4. Verify: Fetch the live URL and test routes.

Examples

• Spring Boot Pattern Fixture: Multi-pattern Spring Boot app; details in the source reference.

Success Checks

• Ensure app responds on its public URL.
• Verify with transactional-workflows self-test.

Limitations

• Verified only on specified template and size; other configurations may not be supported.
• The admin dashboard's specific behavior is treated as application code.

Cost Estimate

• Currency: USD
• Monthly Amount: 10.0
• Components:
  • App server: s-1vcpu-1gb, $5.0
  • Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb, $5.0

Evidence Summary

• Canary Run: Spring Boot pattern fixture checks validated.
