To execute a Spring Boot application on a Windows system, you can follow the following steps:

1. Install Java: First, you need to install Java on your Windows system. You can download the latest version of Java from the official website.

2. Download Spring Boot: Download the latest version of Spring Boot from the official website.

3. Set up your project: Create a new Spring Boot project in your preferred IDE or using the Spring Initializr website. Once you have created the project, add your project code to it.

4. Build your project: To build your Spring Boot project, open a command prompt and navigate to the root directory of your project. Run the following command:

   mvn clean install
   

5. Run your Spring Boot application: To run your Spring Boot application, run the following command:

   java -jar target/<your-project>.jar
   

   Replace <your-project> with the project name you chose.

To run other services on a Docker Compose network, follow these steps:

1. Install Docker: Install Docker on your Windows system.

2. Create a Docker Compose file: Create a new Docker Compose file and define the services that you want to run. A sample Docker Compose file can look like this:

   version: '3'
   services:
    app:
      image: <your-app-image-name>
      ports:
       - "8080:8080"
    db:
      image: mysql
      environment:
        MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: password
        MYSQL_DATABASE: database_name
        MYSQL_USER: user
        MYSQL_PASSWORD: password
   

   Replace <your-app-image-name> with the name of your app's Docker image.

3. Run Docker Compose: To run the Docker Compose file, open a command prompt and navigate to the directory containing the file. Run the following command:

   docker-compose up
   

   This will start all the services defined in the Docker Compose file.

By following these steps, you can execute a Spring Boot application on a Windows system while simultaneously having other services run on a Docker Compose network.
