In this video Jared Rosoff from 10gen and Thomas Risberg from SpringSource show what the combination of MongoDB and Cloud Foundry has to offer to Spring developers. They develop a sample application combining MongoDB and the Spring Data project, and show how to build and deploy it to the cloud. After 60 minutes, you too will be ready to develop and deploy to the cloud your own Spring applications that use MongoDB.

Following on from yesterday's video, InfoQ has just published the video from the Technical Keynote at SpringOne 2GX 2011 with Ben Alex. Ben discusses in detail the forces that are driving change into enterprise development and provides an overview of the research that Spring engineers are doing to define the next generation of applications. Ben is joined on stage by numerous Spring experts:

• Keith Donald & Jeremy Grelle demonstrate how to use Spring based REST services with PhoneGap to produce iPhone and Android applications
• Craig Walls & Roy Clarkson discuss social media integration with modern web applications
• Graeme Rocher & James Tyrell demonstrate off line operation in an HTML 5 app using an in browser database

SpringOne 2GX 2011 was a phenomenal event and thanks to InfoQ, if you were not able to attend in person you can still see much of the content. The first video is from the Opening Night Keynote with Adrian Colyer. Adrian recaps the core principles underlying Spring and then surveys the development progress in the Data, Mobile, Social and Platform-as-a-Service spaces. Adrian also invites Graeme Rocher up to the stage to provide an update on Grails development. Derek Collison also makes a guest appearance to demonstrate some of the great features available in Cloud Foundry.

A shareable version of Adrian's slides are also available on our SpringOne 2GX 2011 Keynote Presentations page.

In this new video interview from InfoQ, Spring expert, Costin Leau talks about Spring Data, caching, data grid architectures and work on a new Spring Hadoop project. This interview, filmed last month at JavaOne 2011, provides some great background to how the Spring team has been thinking about data and how the emerging new models of data access can be incorporated seamlessly into your Spring applications.

Costin talks about :

• Spring Data as an umbrella project
• Transaction capabilities in the world of noSQL
• Flexible caching integration in Spring
• The current development work on Spring Hadoop

Many thanks to InfoQ for taking the time to talk to the Spring experts and providing this outstanding interview to the community.

Wow! Last week's SpringOne 2GX event was sensational. It was an amazing time, and it was - as usual - great to see the Spring community going so strong. I can't wait until the videos from the event start to appear on InfoQ.com.

We've got a lot to cover this week, though, so let's get into it!
