Speakers: Nicolas Fränkel, Hybris

With the Spring Boot stack you can kickstart your Spring project in a matter of minutes. For both developers using Spring and microservices adopters, Spring Boot has been a resounding success.

Favoring Spring Boot over the traditional Spring framework comes at a cost, you have to let Boot be in control and it might hurt when you decide to get back in the driving seat.

Come to this 60 minute webinar and discover how auto-configuration and the different flavors of conditionals work through the creation of a Spring Boot starter. You’ll come away with an…

Speaker: Michael Plöd, InnoQ

This talk will focus on one of the most precious parts of Domain Driven Design, the concept of Strategic Design, as well as Bounded Context, the Context Map and the patterns that are being documented in the Context Map.

An explanation of these principles as well as practical usage scenarios such as migrating a monolithic landscape to microservices is planned for discussion. And, using a hands-on approach, we will demonstrate the concepts surrounding Strategic Design with an application landscape of various Spring Boot Applications

On behalf of Disid Corp, we're pleased to announce the first release candidate of Spring Roo 2.0. This is the first release candidate, from now on we’re going to work in the improvements and bug fixes that the community detects until we'll be able to publish the final release. We encourage you all to participate in this process testing the 2.0.0.RC1 version and reporting the possible bugs and improvements in our JIRA.

RC1 version includes some improvements and bugs fixes detected in the Spring Roo 2.0.0.M3 version. Also, it includes some significant new features:

• Included some improvements on existing commands:

• Improved data-on-demand generation to use it in test commands.

• Improved test unit command which now creates fully functional tests for JPA entities.

• Improved test integration command which now allows to create integration tests for JPA repositories and JSON/Thymeleaf controllers.

• Improved field commands readability, removing unnecessary options and make other dynamically visible.

• Improved push-in --method command, allowing to distinguish between methods with same name but different arguments.

• Improved repository command to allows developers to use projections as default return type.

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Victor Gamov, Neil Stevenson, Hazelcast Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/spring-data-hazelcast-fluently-accessing-distributed-repositories

The primary goal of the Spring Data project is to make it easier to build Spring-powered applications that use data access technologies.

In this talk, Neil and Viktor will present using a new Spring Data for Hazelcast project and demonstrate how using the Spring Data paradigm gains the power of a distributed data repository.

The implementation is built on the new Spring Data KeyValue module and…

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/streaming-live-data-and-the-hadoop-ecosystem

It’s not always easy to get the data you need for analysis. And it becomes even more challenging if it is live streaming data you are working with. Learn how you can make Hadoop work for you in the most effective way possible, especially when it comes to adapting to the agile business requirements of today’s competitive environment. We will cover the Hadoop ecosystem – what is Hadoop, HDFS, MapReduce, Yarn, and then how leading open source projects such as Hive…

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Oleg Zhurakousky Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/spring-with-apachenifi

Spring Integration has long captured the hearts and minds of the developers world wide for its emphasis on simplicity, modularity and productivity when it comes to all things related to work-flow orchestration and complex event processing and is successfully used in a variety of Big Data solutions. Apache NiFi, on the other hand, is a new addition to the already rich Big Data technology stack.

Can the two complement one another?

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Andreas Evers, Ordina JWorks Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/writing-comprehensive-and-guaranteed-uptodate-rest-api-documentation

RESTful APIs are eating the world, yet all too often the documentation can cause indigestion for the APIs' developers and their users. Developers have to deal with annotation overload, repetition, and an unpleasant writing environment. Users are then left with documentation that's inaccurate and difficult to use. It doesn't have to be this way.

This talk will introduce Spring REST Docs and its test…
