The bug fix releases primarily ship dependency upgrades, including one to the latest Spring Framework 5 and 6 releases which include fixes for a CVE. The 2.1 milestone includes a couple of new features, such as:

We are launching a new way to pay for Azure Spring Apps -- the consumption pricing plan. This plan is now in public preview so you can start creating and deploying apps today. This new plan is super-efficient because you can start from zero and scale to zero vCPU. You get more straightforward pricing across your containerized applications since it costs the same as Azure Container Apps, but with added value for Spring apps.

How does this work? With the new plan, you can deploy apps that don’t need to run all the time or apps that have bursts of traffic and only pay for the resources used…
