- Spring Cache

Ehcache is a JVM caching library, famous for being used as the default 2nd level cache for the Hibernate ORM
Spring cache was introduced in Spring 3.1, and brought annotations such as @CachePut to define uses of caches in a Spring application; by default Spring cache uses a plain Map, but you can configure it to use any popular caching framework, including Ehcache
Since Spring 4.1, Spring cache supports JSR-107, the standard for caching on the JVM.
What that means, is that you can add JSR-107 caching annotations, and then choose your caching library (ehcache 2 or 3 / guava / caffeine / etc.) : you're not tied to any caching vendor, even not tied to Spring cache annotations !
There's this nice blog post explaining the parallel between Spring cache annotations and JSR-107 annotations and if you choose to use Ehcache3 in your spring boot application, there's another interesting blog post explaining you how to integrate it in your app

Ehcache3 has support for JSR 107
For Ehcache2 may be you can use this implementation
