Host ai chat application with Spring Boot: stored input and output artifacts
Deploy a ai chat application built with Spring Boot on Ample using the generated downloads pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL, a private S3-compatible bucket holds objects with credentials delivered as encrypted environment variables. Verified on Spring Boot: an export query rendered to a CSV artifact stored with metadata in a private bucket and returned only to an authorized caller (401 without token, export=ok rows=3). Not separately tested: your export formats, retention policy and entitlement model; treat the ai chat application-specific behavior as your application code.
Representative Queries
- Host ai chat application with Spring Boot: stored input and output artifacts
- Where can I host AI chat application built with Spring Boot?
- I need an input/output artifact contract, object metadata and access boundaries.
Resource Requirements
- primitive:compute
- primitive:postgres
- primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage
Infrastructure Requirements
- Compute: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
- Postgres: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.
- S3-compatible object storage: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.
Prerequisites
- A Spring Boot project that builds and starts with the documented commands (./mvnw -q -DskipTests package) producing one application jar, then
java -jaron the jvm-21 template (Temurin JDK 21) with server.port read from PORT. - A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env).
- A bucket from
ample bucket createwith its credentials passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables. - An Ample account token with
servers:write,databases:read,buckets:read.
Workflow Steps
- Build and start:
./mvnw -q -DskipTests package (or the Gradle wrapper), thenjava -jaron the jvm-21 template. - Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL: The fixture's module implements generated downloads; copy the approach into your schema.
- Wire object storage: Create the bucket(s), then pass endpoint, region, bucket and keys as --env values.
- Deploy: Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.
- Verify: Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s).
Cost Estimate
- Currency: USD
- Monthly Amount: 10.0
- Components:
- App Server: s-1vcpu-1gb, 1.0, 5.0
- Managed PostgreSQL Database: s-1vcpu-1gb, 1.0, 5.0
Limitations
- Verified on the jvm-21 template at s-1vcpu-2gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates and Spring Boot major versions are not verified.
- Apps auto-pause when idle and wake on the next request; always-on is an operator setting, not a plan feature.
