This Week in Spring - June 10th, 2024

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I'm in Paris, France, to talk to organizations using and working with Spring. Then, next week, it's off to Krakow, Poland, for the amazing Devoxx PL event! I can't wait. If you're around, don't hesitate to say "hi"!

We've got an amazing roundup, so let's dive right into it!

• I did a talk at Spring IO 2024 in Barcelona that introduced the latest-and-greatest in Spring Boot, and I think you might like it. (Others did; it was voted the most popular talk...)
• Two short weeks ago, I was in Barcelona, Spain, for the amazing Spring IO event where I did a talk and a keynote. The keynote, delivered with my colleague and friend Christian Tsolov, was a blazing fast introduction to all things Spring AI. Spring IO was nice enough to lend me the footage, and it's presented here for your enjoyment. Trust me, this is a great use of 20-ish minutes.
• It was a lot of fun to talk to Bellsoft developer advocate Pasha Finkelshteyn in this episode of A Bootiful Podcast…

Hi, Spring fans, from London! I'm in this fabulous country doing my level-headed best to refrain from dooing Mr. Bean bits, because, honestly, if I - an avid and prolific fan of Spring and its many beans - can't be "Mr. Bean," then I'm glad Rowan Atkinson is!

I'm here for a SpringOne Tour event, and I can't wait. Friends, let's dive right into it!

• Sebastien Deleuze, Spring Framework committer and legend, has some interesting news! The GraalVM team is looking at building a WASM (Web Assembly) backend for their GraalVM native image compiler technology. I love this!

• I liked this deck on …

Hi, Spring fans, from the amazing Spring IO conference in Barcelona, Spain!

In this interview I talked to Microsoft's Sandra Ahlgrimm on all things cloud, Java, AI, and more. Also, a special and quick discussion with Spring IO founder Sergi Almar, who was last on the show in, I think, 2020!

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! And what a week it will be! I'm in Venice, Italy, on a little vacation, but tomorrow I begin a quick journey to beautiful Sofia, Bulgaria, where I'll be speaking at the amazing JPrime software show (it's my first time speaking there, though not even my 20th time speaking in Bulgaria!). I'm so looking forward to it.

Then, I turn right back around and head to Barcelona, Spain, for the not-to-be-missed Spring IO event! I love Spring IO, and you should too! It is, in my estimation, the premier Spring event in EMEA and an…

Spring Boot 3.3.0 has been released, and it contains support for SBOMs. SBOM stands for "Software Bill of Materials" and describes the components used to build a software artifact. In the context of this blog post, that's your Spring Boot application. These SBOMs are useful because they describe exactly what your application contains. With that information, you can assess if a security vulnerability affects your application, or use automated security tools to scan your applications and alert you on security vulnerabilities.

There are multiple SBOM formats out there, the most widely used ones are CycloneDX, SPDX, and Syft. Spring Boot 3.3.0 supports CycloneDX out of the box. The…
