On behalf of the Spring, Apache Geode and Pivotal GemFire communities, it is my pleasure to announce the release of Spring Boot for Apache Geode & Pivotal GemFire (SBDG) 1.3.0.M4.

SBDG 1.3.0.M4 builds on Spring Boot 2.3.0.M4 and is based on Spring Framework 5.2.5.RELEASE, Spring Data Neumann-RC1, Spring Session for Apache Geode & Pivotal GemFire (SSDG) 2.3.0.RC2 and Spring Test for Apache Geode & Pivotal GemFire (STDG) 0.0.14.RELEASE.

Additionally, SBDG 1.3.0.M4 is now based on Apache Geode 1.12.0 and Pivotal GemFire 9.10.0.

You can find the 1.3.0.M4 release bits in the Spring Milestone Repository as well as on start.spring.io by using the Spring Initializer to create a Spring for Apache Geode project.

Please see the changelog for more details.

What’s New

SBDG 1.3.0.M4 includes the following improvements:

• Support for Geode Properties (gemfire.properties & gfsecurity.properties) in Spring Boot application.properties. Read the documentation for more details.

• Added a new Sample for Multi-Site Caching, which includes a Guide and Source Code.

With the addition of the Multi-Site Caching Sample Guide and Source Code, this completes our story on caching, and specifically caching patterns (such as: Look-Aside, Near, Inline and Multi-Site) along with use caches (e.g. HTTP Session Caching).

What’s Next

We are still targeting to include the ability to load data into an Apache Geode cache on startup in the same way that Spring Boot applies schemal.sql and data.sql files to an RDBMS on startup for the SBDG 1.3 release.

You can find more details and follow along in Issue #67.

As always, any feedback is greatly appreciated and welcomed.
