Hi, Spring fans! Happy new year! It's 2023 already! Who saw that comin'? I sure didn't. This year promises to be more amazing than ever, and I can't wait to be a part of it.

As usual, the first week of January is when we mark the date of the first installment of this humble roundup, This Week in Spring, waaaay back in the first week of January 2011! 12 years of This Week in Spring! Now that's consistency!

And it's only possible because of you, dear community. Thank you. You, who have been consistently excellent every week of the year for years and years, are truly the reason for the season

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's 27 December as I write this and - being honest - I couldn't be happier. It's raining outside. I'm in a warm cozy office. Good music is playing. People are asleep in my home. I can hear the raindrops and wind outside the window. I'm at peace as I code. And code I have. I've been updating my blog, and a half dozen little side projects, to the new Spring Boot 3. This has given me a chance to do a little, shall we say, Spring cleaning, and also update my Github Actions to the latest and greatest. I'm pleasantly surprised…

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I truly, absolutely, can not believe that we're nearly done with the year already! Have you made your new years' resolutions? Submitted your expense reports? It's that time of the year when I'm going to start focusing on staying warm and avoiding undue work for a while :-) I hope you do too.

Do more with Azure Spring Apps – scale to zero and enhance productivity

In 2020, Spotify coined the term "Golden Path” to refer to a supported approach and set of components to build and deploy software. Having these paths simplifies the development process, lets developers focus on their applications instead of infrastructure and speeds time to production. Microsoft and VMware have partnered to make Azure Spring Apps a golden path for deploying and scaling Spring applications in the cloud. And with new capabilities like the scale to zero and developer productivity enhancements, Azure Spring Apps now offers an even more economical and optimized route to get your…

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How are you? You know what I've wanted to do? See my friends on the Spring team in person since the pandemic descended. And, I'm overjoyed to relate, I've just had the privilege of a nice meeting with several of them last night. And I'm going to see more of them today! Seriously. I feel like I won the lottery. I've missed my friends. Hug your friends and family, friends. You never know when the next pandemic (or life in general) will put distance between you and them. So, in order to close that distance, I'm going to go…
