Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! We're now squarely in 2017, and 0 as always - there is much to cover!

This is also the first week of the year. I note it with some pride because it also marks the 6th anniversary of the first installment of This Week in Spring, in January 2011, which I've since continued every Tuesday without fail come sickness, holiday, travel or otherwise. It's been a heckuva run and I'm excited to see what will grace This Week in Spring in the next 6+ years! I'm eternally grateful for all the people (from the community and internal to VMWare and now Pivotal) that have contributed to This Week in Spring over the years! For the last 3+ years my friend and Pivotal's own …

Welcome to a very special This Week in Spring! Every year we wrap up with a recap of highlights from the year. This year's no different! It's been a heckuva year, and the Pivotal Spring and Cloud Foundry teams seem to deliver bigger and better tech every passing day. If you've been following This Week in Spring then you'll no doubt be aware of the changes! It's hard to keep up, even for me, with the dizzying pace of releases!

So, here are the top five things I'd encourage people to review from 2016:

• Spring Boot: this year saw the release of Spring Boot 1.4 which in turn contains support for Spring Framework 4.3, Hibernate 5, Couchbase, Neo4J, and a slew of other niceties as discussed in the changelog. This year, in Pivotal Cloud Foundry 1.9, Spring Boot enjoys even greater integration with the platform, with deep support for Spring Boot Actuators, among many other things being surfaces in the Apps Manager console. Also, the downloads for Spring Boot are through the roof, going from 2.4 million a month in November 2015 to 10.2 million a month in 201…

Hi Spring fans! I'm taking some time off for the holiday so there won't be a new Spring Tips until after the new year. If you're itching for something to watch and learn, here are some resources to tide you over.

Happy new year!

• the Spring YouTube channel is a wonderful resource with countless talks and videos from previous years' SpringOne2GX, SpringOne Platform and Cloud Foundry summit conferences, our year-long webinar program and even various meetups and so on. This is one of my absolute favorite resources that, thanks to our own Pieter Humphrey, has grown in leaps and bounds in the last several years, exceeding even the Java YouTube channel in subscribers!
• the Spring Tips YouTube Playlist - all the previous installments of Spring Tips are captured in this playlist. If you missed an episode or simply want to review, start here! So far, in 2016, we've looked at Spring Integration, Kotlin, Circuit Breakers, Spring-aware beans, functional reactive endpoints in Spring 5, Spring Cloud Stream, Cloud Foundry, JTA, Bootiful Dashboards, Demystifying Spring Boot, and …
