Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of Spring Tips. In this episode we're going to look at the new Kotlin DSL for Spring Security. I love Kotlin. I introduced Kotlin in several other Spring Tips videos: The Kotlin Programming Language, Bootiful Kotlin Redux, and Spring's Support for Coroutines. Some of those videos are very old! There are already a number of different projects in the Spring diaspora that are shipping Kotlin DSLs. They include, among others, Spring Framework, Spring Webflux, Spring Data, Spring Cloud Contract and Spring Cloud Gateway. And now, Spring Security!
Spring Security is an amazing project - it solves some of the hardest problems in the industry and helps people secure their applications. And, as if that weren't enough, it's displayed a steadfast determination to make security easy. If you ever used Spring Security in its earliest incarnations, you'd know that it required loads of XML - pages! - to get anything done. That improved to the point where in Spring Security 3 you…
Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! This week, I'm home, in San Francisco, California, in the US, where the fears around Coronavirus have heated up and made things problematic for those of us who travel.

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment of Spring Tips, we're going to look at Alibaba's Apache RocketMQ. We've talked some about Alibaba in Spring Tips before. Check out the earlier Spring Tips installment in which we explore some of Spring Cloud Alibaba.
Running Apache RocketMQ
In order to use Apache RocketMQ, you'll need to follow the steps in the RocketMQ quickstart. This Spring Tips installment introduces Apache RocketMQ, originally a technology developed and used internally at Alibaba and proven in the forge of 11/11, the famous Chinese sales holiday, sort of like "Cyber Monday," or "Black Friday," in the US. Sort of like that, but waaaaaay bigger. In 2019, Alibaba (alone, with no other e-commerce engines involved), made almost $40 billion USD in 2…
Hi, Spring fans! This week I am in delicious Philadelphia enjoying the amazing food (scrapple! TastyKakes!) and hanging out with amazing customers using VMWare and Spring to great effect. It's been a busy week since we last talked: I released a new Spring Tips installment, wrote a bunch of blogs, recorded a new podcast, and published a new podcast installment.

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment Josh Long (@starbuxman) talks to friends - Mercy Ma (马昕曦), Andy Shi (施孜海), and Jim Fang (方剑) - from Alibaba. These engineers work on Spring Cloud Alibaba, some of the open source infrastructure coming out of Alibaba designed to support Spring applications running at Alibaba, and more.
Hi, Spring fans! In this installment, we look at using Spring Security and RSocket together. RSocket is a payload and platform agonostic wire protocol developed by engineers at Netflix and Facebook that supports the Reactive Streams concepts on the wire. The protocol is a stateful-connection centric protocol: a requester node connects and stays connected to another responder node. Once connected, either side can transmit information…
