That depends on what you want to replace it with. Can you describe your use case in more detail?.

Also: how are you using Flowable: standalone , REST API, from the Task UI? All have different answers (e.g. standalone it’s a simply boolean flag on the engine config).

i want to have my own java spring boot microservice project which will do the authorization and authentication.And if any new functionality is there that we can put in our new microservice project.Instead of authorization and authentication we want other module from flowable.
