Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! The Spring team is hard at work on all the latest and greatest ahead of the SpringOne2GX event in Washington DC! Time is really flying! I can't beleive what we're staring down September already! This week I'm in Tokyo, Japan, participating in the Spring User Group's huge Spring in Summer event where I gave a keynote and two talks, on Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. The one day event attracted some of the company's largest websites and was a lot of fun!

Anyway, without further ado, let's get to it!
