I am starting development on a new spring boot app. Although I have had prior experience in working with boot, but this time we have been instructed to build the app by just using boot starters.
The technical stack is as follows:
App running on weblogic. ...... Etc
So I was wondering if it's ok to use multiple boot starters in a single app?
If yes then from the looks of it I might have to use around 4 starters to get where I want to be.
Any idea?

So yes, this is expected behavior given your project setup. Put each @SpringBootApplication class in a separate subpackage if you don't want this to happen for local testing.
The advantages of using Starters are as follows: Increase productivity by decreasing the Configuration time for developers. Managing the POM is easier since the number of dependencies to be added is decreased. Tested, Production-ready, and supported dependency configurations.
The application can also be called as Spring Boot Standalone application. To develop a non web application, your Application needs to implement CommandLineRunner interface along with its run method. This run method acts like a main of your application.
You can build your app with any number of starters, with some restrictions i guess... you probably don't want to use tomcat and undertow starter in the same project for example :)
A starter includes dependencies for the given starter type along with auto-configuration to get you up and running in no time. You can read more here on starters.
Edit: some useful info on weblogic deployment, configuring log4j2 and eclipselink in spring-boot
This project should get you started with sufficient dependencies. (from start.spring.io)
