My project is built with Spring boot 1.5.10.release. We want to migrate to Apache Kafka® 2.3.0 from Apache Kafka 1.0.x.
We are currently using Spring-kafka 1.3.9.release and want to migrate to spring-kafka-2.3.0. Can we do this without changing the Spring boot version of 1.5.10.release?
I went through the Compatibility matrix but I don't see any relevant answer to my question
https://spring.io/projects/spring-kafka
No, you can't do that. Spring Kafka 2.x, as well Spring Boot 2.x, is based on Spring Framework 5.x and Java 8. You can't mix so critical versions in Spring Boot 1.5.x.
It is really better to rely on the Spring Boot dependencies management. That way you can be sure that all the artifacts brought by Spring Boot are tested together.

The spring published that:
I used spring 5.3.16, spring boot 2.2.10.RELEASE, spring cloud 2.2.10.RELEASE to use spring-cloud-netflix-zuul, so, can I just upgrade the spring version to 5.3.18, but don't upgrade other framwork?
Spring Boot 2.2.x is EOL and may contain other security fixes that affect you. Spring Boot 2.2.10.RELEASE use Spring Framework 5.2.9.RELEASE.
If you are using Spring Framework 5.3.x, this is not really a supported scenario irrespective of this CVE. You should be using Spring Framework 5.2.x. For that, we have released Spring Framework 5.2.20.
Of course, to be really safe you should upgrade to a supported version.
There is a vulnerability (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-22047) discovered in spring-data-rest-webmvc which is only fixed in versions 3.4.14 and 3.5.6. Spring Boot 2.3.12 uses the version 3.3.9. Migrating to spring boot 2.4.x or above is not an option for us.
We would like to use spring-data-rest-webmvc:3.4.14, but we are not sure if it's compatible with spring boot 2.3.x.
Can we use them together?
Spring Data Rest version 3.4 and up use Spring Framework version 5.3.x.
Spring Boot 2.3 is build with Spring Framework 5.2.x.
Will it work, probably, but there are no garanties that it will keep working or work at all. Most like it will fail with some NoSuchMethodError or ClassNotFOundExceptions or other exotic expetions one gets when mixing modules/jars from different versions of a framework.
The application is created using spring boot version 1.2.5 Release. I can see that it includes an embedded tomcat version which is 8.0.23. Is it possible to upgrade to a recent tomcat version, let's say, tomcat 9 with spring boot 1.2.5 and still run the application? Or do we need to upgrade the spring boot version to be compatible with tomcat 9? Is there any documentation for the spring boot version compatibility with Tomcat? Thank you.
Why do you want to upgrade it? What is the newer version of tomcat going to bring?
I personally go with the defaults for the spring version unless there is a specific need or issue.
That being said this question may have some pointers

You may be able to just set the property
9.0.5
It would be preferable to upgrade to the latest Spring Boot release (currently 2.2.5-RELEASE) to avail yourself of the latest features. There are many tutorials, migration guides, problem solutions, etc., out there to guide you, of which here are just a couple:

You didn't specify a reason for keeping your Spring Boot version at 1.2.5-RELEASE and only upgrading tomcat, but if you really must, there are other answers, such as here: How to change embedded tomcat's version in existing spring boot app?
In the New Spring Starter Dependencies, for Version 2.0.1, (STS 3.9.1), Apache Camel is not available to including as a dependency. Is this not supported or am I missing any configuration?
Figured out that Camel currently supports Spring Boot 1.5, and not Spring Boot 2.0.. as per the release notes here
Hi Currently I am using camel-2.9.1 with default underlying dependency spring 3.0.5. This is working fine in production. Now I have to use some feature of Spring 3.1.x or Spring 4.x.
Will camel-2.9.1 works if I replace underlying spring jars to 3.1.x or Spring 4.x.
Since it is already in production i don't want to upgrade camel jars.
Will same camel-jars of 2.9.1 works with Spring 3.1.x or spring 4.x
