+# Spring Boot role
+
+### Dependencies
+These dependencies are not explicitly configured to allow
+usage of role for deployment scenarios where server state
+itself is predictable and stable.

+- nginx
+- letsencrypt
+- docker
+

+If the Spring application uses Kafka, the kafka
+role has to be used in a play before this role 
+is used.
