Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's been another fun-filled week since we last spoke.

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of Spring Tips. In this installment, we're going to look at the new support just released for building Spring Boot applications with GraalVM. We've looked at GraalVM and native images in another Spring Tips when we looked at Spring Fu.

GraalVM is several things. It's a C1 replacement for a standard OpenJDK install. You can listen to this episode of my podcast, A Bootiful Podcast, with GraalVM contributor and Twitter engineer Chris Thalinger, for more details on this use of GraalVM. It lets you run regular Sring…

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment, we're going to take a look at the new Kotlin DSL for Spring Integration. I've covered both Spring Integration and Kotlin in other videos before. I am pretty sure I've also used Spring Integration from within a Kotlin-based Spring application, but this is the first time I've been able to cover a Kotlin DSL specifically for Spring Integration.

Spring Integration has been around for a long time - 13 years at least - and it serves a timeless use case: the integration of disparate systems and services. It's patterned after the seminal tome by Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf, Enterprise Integration Patterns. It's a fantastic tome, and I couldn't more enthusiastically recommend it as it serves, after a fashion, as the documentation required for understanding Spring Integration. Spring Integration codifies the…

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of Spring Tip! In this installment, we look at something near and dear to my heart (and my @author tag!) - the Cloud Foundry Java client auto-configuration.

What is Cloud Foundry?

Cloud Foundry is an open-source PaaS. It has a lot of flexibility. I'm in love with it if I'm honest. It's simple. I love things like it that give me flexibility without requiring too many sacrifices at the altar of the YAML deity. It's an opinionated platform as a service. You give the platform an application, and it deploys them. You upload a spring boot app, and it figures out that the app is a standalone, self-contained, so-called "fat" .jar and it downloads the required JDK, configures the necessary amount of memory and then creates a filesystem with your…
