Using ehcache 3 with Spring Annotations (not using Spring Boot)
Indeed there is no native support of Ehcache 3 in Spring Caching.
The good news is that you achieve what you want with the JCache support that Spring Caching has since Ehcache 3 is a compliant JCache implementation.And once you have a JCache CacheManager available in your application context, nothing forces you to use the JCache annotations. You can keep using the Spring Caching ones without any problem.
You can find a demo of that here.
