Spring-Petclinic enhanced with AI Chat
I’m excited to introduce AI Chat enhanced with the Spring Petclinic project, bringing Generative AI capabilities into the classic Spring Boot reference application. This release transforms the traditional Petclinic experience into an intelligent, conversational platform where users can interact using natural language instead of navigating forms and menus. The GitHub release includes the complete source code, configuration details for locally deployed OLLAMA Service build and run instructions. You can explore everything at https://github.com/krishnamanchikalapudi/spring-petclinic/releases/tag/AI-Chat_rel_v1.0
With AI Chat v1.0 tag, the application now features a context-aware chatbot capable of answering queries like List all pet owners or Add a new pet, while also executing real backend operations. Built with Spring Boot and Java 17+, it supports flexible AI providers, integrates a ChatClient for prompt-driven interactions, and extends the original architecture with a Spring AI layer, REST-based chat endpoint, and multiple database options. This project demonstrates how existing enterprise applications can evolve into AI-powered systems without major rewrites, offering a practical example for developers exploring AI integration in real-world scenarios.
