Spring Cloud LoadBalancer Starter

We also provide a starter that allows you to easily add Spring Cloud LoadBalancer in a Spring Boot app. In order to use it, just add org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-loadbalancer to your Spring Cloud dependencies in your build file.

Spring Cloud LoadBalancer starter includes Spring Boot Caching and Evictor.
If you have both Ribbon and Spring Cloud LoadBalancer int the classpath, in order to maintain backward compatibility, Ribbon-based implementations will be used by default. In order to switch to using Spring Cloud LoadBalancer under the hood, make sure you set the property spring.cloud.loadbalancer.ribbon.enabled to false.
