Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's 27 December as I write this and - being honest - I couldn't be happier. It's raining outside. I'm in a warm cozy office. Good music is playing. People are asleep in my home. I can hear the raindrops and wind outside the window. I'm at peace as I code. And code I have. I've been updating my blog, and a half dozen little side projects, to the new Spring Boot 3. This has given me a chance to do a little, shall we say, Spring cleaning, and also update my Github Actions to the latest and greatest. I'm pleasantly surprised…

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I truly, absolutely, can not believe that we're nearly done with the year already! Have you made your new years' resolutions? Submitted your expense reports? It's that time of the year when I'm going to start focusing on staying warm and avoiding undue work for a while :-) I hope you do too. This is why I'm glad I write these roundups: I hope they save people from extra, undue work! So, with that... let's dive into the roundup!

In 2020, Spotify coined the term "Golden Path” to refer to a supported approach and set of components to build and deploy software.

Microsoft and VMware have partnered to make Azure Spring Apps a golden path for deploying and scaling Spring applications in the cloud. And with new capabilities like the scale to zero and developer productivity enhancements, Azure Spring Apps now offers an even more economical and optimized route to get your…
Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How are you? You know what I've wanted to do? See my friends on the Spring team in person since the pandemic descended.

So, in order to close that distance, I'm going to go…

Hi, Spring fans! It's here! It's finally here, at long last! Spring Boot 3!! And of course with Spring Boot 3.0 comes a whole portfolio of integrated projects that have also been updated!

I put together a Spring Tipds video introducing some of the major themes of Spring Framework 6 / Spring Boot 3. I also did an in-depth look at the new GraalVM support powered by Spring's ahead-of-time (AOT) engine. There's so much else to talk about…
