Dependency table for spring boot 2.4.3

I have a difficulty defining what dependencies versions are compatible with each other.

In my case i have this

enter image description here

I don't know for the spring boot 2.4.3 what versions of the dependencies below go with it or the cloud version to 2020.0.1.

How can i fix this for example i want to migrate the spring boot and spring cloud to its latest versions.

It might be because there are collisions between dependencies included from the start and your explicitly defined dependencies. For example, take this dependency: spring-cloud-contract

Your version: 2.1.5

2020.0.1 Spring cloud's supported version: 3.0.1 (check this link mentioned by @Jonatan)

Try to exclude built-in dependencies that you have explicitly defined. For Maven it would be:

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-cloud-dependencies</artifactId>
            <version>2020.0.1</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
                    <artifactId>spring-cloud-contract-verifier</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

But that might not work because not all libraries are backward compatible. I would suggest using default libraries provided by spring cloud and remove explicit dependencies.

It is a good rule of thumb to not define the versions yourself but use BOMs and let them define the versions for you:

In order to find out which BOMs to use, you can use this compatibility matrix or the endpoint that @spencergibb mentioned: https://start.spring.io/actuator/info.

If you want to use a Spring Project that is not in the BOM, most probably that Spring Project is not supported (e.g.: Netflix libraries by latest Spring Cloud as @spencergibb mentioned).

Update: here's a Gradle example but you can generate a whole project using Spring Initializer:

plugins {
  id 'org.springframework.boot' version '2.4.3'
  id 'io.spring.dependency-management' version '1.0.11.RELEASE'
  id 'java'
}

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
}
dependencyManagement {
  imports {
    mavenBom 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-dependencies:2020.0.1'
  }
}
dependencies {
  implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
  implementation 'org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-starter-circuitbreaker-resilience4j'
}
