Good things come in pairs, so I am happy to announce the availability of Spring Session for Apache Geode & Pivotal GemFire (SSDG) 2.0.6.RELEASE and 2.1.0.RELEASE.

SSDG 2.0.6.RELEASE, based on Spring Framework 5.0.10.RELEASE, Spring Data Kay-SR11 and Spring Session core 2.0.7.RELEASE mainly contains dependency updates.

SSDG 2.1.0.RELEASE, on the other hand, has been upgraded to Spring Framework 5.1.1.RELEASE, Spring Data Lovelace-SR1 and Spring Session core 2.1.0.RELEASE, and additionally includes support for custom Session expiration policies and rules.

Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! This week I've just flown back from Canada and Russia where I was at the amazing Joker conference in St. Petersburg. I'm now in San Francisco (where I live!) for a couple of days to soak up the amazing atmosphere around Oracle CodeOne, reunited with the Java community and longtime friends. I'm so excited about the presentation that fellow Java Champion Trisha Gee and I are doing tomorrow at 11:30 am that introduces an end-to-end reactive and Spring-based application from JavaFX client to service. Do not miss this!

Spring Cloud Function has a couple of new features in 2.0 (still in milestone phase), and possibly the most dramatic is the ability to go "fully functional". This is made possible by changes in Spring Boot 2.1 together with Spring Framework 5.1, and it means a different way of thinking about bean definitions in Spring applications, but also significant improvements in startup performance.

AWS Cost Savings

It’s always good to start with a picture, especially if it tells a story. Here’s a graph that shows the improvement in Spring Cloud Function 2.0 over 1.0, comparing the cost of cold starts in…

Just starting your dev career? Check out this last report on the JVM ecosystem. Simon Maple, Andrew Binstock, and many others have done developers of all skill levels a great service with this data.

<@snyksec>Mirror mirror on the wall, which is the most popular Java web framework of them all?

I'm a long-time Spring developer, and I've advocated for it for the last 10 years. It's no surprise how widely adopted it is. Spring Boot dominates the Cloud Native Java ecosystem. Download numbers keep growing at unseen rates. In fact, according to the survey, there are more people developing using Spring technologies than not. It's a great time to be a Java developer!

I could be happier though…

The following CVEs have been published today:

1. CVE-2018-15756 for Spring Framework 5.1.1, 5.0.10, and 4.3.20.
2. CVE-2018-15758 for Spring Security OAuth 2.3.4, 2.2.3, 2.1.3, and 2.0.16.
