On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce a new milestone for the next Spring Framework generation. We have compiled all the upgrade information, new features and deprecations on the Spring Framework 7.0 release notes preview page.

Resilience Features

After the introduction of the org.springframework.core.retry package in 7.0.0-M6, effectively moving features from the former "spring-retry" project, we recently introduced dedicated @Retryable, @ConcurrencyLimit and @EnableResilientMethods annotations. This is now documented in the "Resilience Features" section of the reference documentation…

I am pleased to announce that Spring for GraphQL 1.3.6 and 1.4.1 maintenance releases are now available on Maven Central.

• 1.4.1 closes 15 issues. This version will ship with Spring Boot 3.5.4, to be released on July 24th.
• 1.3.6 closes 15 issues. This version will ship with Spring Boot 3.4.8, to be scheduled soon.

Both releases ship two important changes:

1. a performance improvement of our cancellation support; see gh-1242.

Thank you so much to our community for spotting this in production! 2. a much-needed GraphiQL upgrade for the GraphQL explorer, as the former CDN setup was recently broken; see …

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce a new milestone for the next Spring Framework generation. The M6 continues delivering new features and refinements on top of 7.0.0-M1, 7.0.0-M2, 7.0.0-M3, 7.0.0-M4 and 7.0.0-M5.

We've made lots of refinements on features delivered in previous milestones, but we also have a new feature that we would like to share.

Retry support in Spring Core

We have been working on the Spring Retry project for a very long time. The Spring team decided that it was time to trim unnecessary features, revisit some of its API and merge the resulting work into the "spring-core" module of Spring Framework. This new Retry support is located in the org.springframework.core.retry…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Framework 6.1.21 and 6.2.8 are available now.

On behalf of the Spring for GraphQL team, I am pleased to announce the availability of 1.4.0, the generally available release.

In case you missed those, the 1.4.0-M1 and 1.4.0-RC1 release blog posts described the new features for this generation. The Spring for GraphQL 1.4.0 wiki page should help you to upgrade your application. We will keep updating this page with the feedback we get from the community on our issue tracker and on StackOverflow.

GraphQL Java 24+ baseline

The GraphQL Java team recently released new major releases for the Java DataLoader and GraphQL Java projects. They immediately supersede the 23.x generation so Spring for GraphQL 1.4 will require GraphQL Java 24+ as a baseline. This last-minute change shouldn't affect much your…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce a new milestone for the next Spring Framework generation. The fifth milestone continues delivering new features and refinements on top of 7.0.0-M1, 7.0.0-M2, 7.0.0-M3 and 7.0.0-M4.

Jackson 3.0 support

As of #33798, we default to supporting Jackson 3.x in our entire stack, falling back to Jackson 2.x. Support for the Jackson 2.x generation has been deprecated in Spring Framework, and our current plan is to disable its auto-detection in 7.1, and remove its support entirely in 7.2.

Jackson 3.x uses a new tools.jackson package, which differs from the usual com.fasterxml.jackson. Classes from the "jackson-annotation" artifact (like @JsonView, @JsonTypeInfo) remain in the com.fasterxml.jackson…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Framework 6.1.20 and 6.2.7 are available now.

Open source support for Spring Framework 5.3.x and 6.0.x generations has ended and will expire for the 6.1.x generation next month, see our support page for more information…

On behalf of the Spring for GraphQL team, I am pleased to announce the availability of 1.4.0-RC1, our last stop before the generally available release. In case you missed it, 1.4.0-M1 already shipped lots of new features and improvements.

You can read the full changelog for 1.4.0-RC1 and the upgrade notes on our wiki.

DataLoader observations

The Spring for GraphQL instrumentation creates Micrometer Observations for GraphQL requests and DataFetcher operations. Some data fetching operations are relying on batch loading calls to avoid the "N+1 problem". In previous generations, one would not see the difference between a "full" data fetching operation and one that simply delegates to DataLoader…

1.3.5 closes 12 issues. This version will ship with Spring Boot 3.3.11 and 3.4.5, to be released next week.
