> We have a compile dependency on spring data gemfire in the ServerLauncher class to support launching a server using a spring data gemfire configuration instead of a cache.xml file.
> That's a good feature to have, but it should be part of spring data gemfire, not geode. Because of this compile dependency on SDG, we currently have a circular dependency on SDG -> Geode -> SDG. That makes it difficult to do things like rename packages in geode (GEODE-37) because SDG is still using the old packages.
> Instead of directly depending on spring data gemfire, we should provide an extension point that SDG can plug into to override the cache server startup behavior.
> The easiest place way to do this is just to use the java ServiceLoader mechanism. We can provide an interface for a plugin that replaces startup behavior of the server. SDG can provide an implementation of this interface.
