In today’s microservices-based world, many mission-critical systems have distributed elements or are entirely distributed. Ideally, these architectures should improve things such as performance, scalability, reliability, and resilience—but subpar design can limit those strengths, or worse yet, turn them into challenges that need to be overcome.

Messaging platforms help solve these problems and improve the "ilities," but they come with a few complexities of their own. This webinar will teach you how to use open-source solutions like Spring Cloud Stream, RabbitMQ…

In 2014, we announced the retirement of our legacy forum, forum.spring.io, in favor of providing an improved community experience on stackoverflow.com. As part of that announcement, we put our forum into read-only mode, preserving forum posts that were referenced in various Spring issue trackers.

On February 28, 2019, we plan to take the forum completely offline. In preparation for this end-of-life activity, we have gone through our issue trackers and identified links to forum.spring.io that contain supplementary information related to an issue. Based on this analysis, we have either copied…

Dear Spring community,

The Spring Cloud Data Flow team have been happy stewards of the Spring Cloud Deployer and Spring Cloud Data Flow implementations of Apache Mesos and Apache YARN.

We now feel that TrustedChoice.com will be a better home for Apache Mesos implementation of Spring Cloud Deployer and Spring Cloud Data Flow, and we are donating the projects to them to carry it forward.

The development will now be managed directly by the team (Adam J. Weigold, Phil Egelston, Justin Mathieu, and Cole Anderson) at TrustedChoice.com, as the Spring Cloud Data Flow team will no longer maintain it.

All good things must come to an end, and for the 1.x line of Spring Boot that means we will need to cease maintenance twelve months from today, on Aug 1st 2019.

We will keep publishing occasional 1.5.x maintenance releases up until that point and will then end the branch.

Existing Spring Boot 1.x users should plan accordingly to ensure that they have upgraded to the latest 2.x version before that date. Please also note that Spring Boot 2.0 and above requires Java 8+, so if you're running Java 6 or 7 you should also plan on upgrading your JDK.

For detailed instructions on what you'll need to do to upgrade a Spring Boot 1.5 application to 2.0, check out the migration guide…

Spring Cloud Edgware will follow the Spring Boot 1.x EOL announcement. We will cease maintenance of the Edgware release train twelve months from today, on Aug 1st 2019.

We will keep publishing occasional Edgware service releases up until that point and will then end the release train.

As a reminder, the Camden release train has reached EOL, and Dalston will reach EOL at the end of December 2018.

Existing Spring Cloud users should plan accordingly to ensure that they have upgraded to the latest Finchley+ version before that date. Also, please note that Spring Cloud Finchley and later requires…

Maintenance of the Spring IO Platform will end twelve months from today, 9 April 2019, and the project will be moved to the attic. Maintenance releases of both the Brussels and Cairo lines will continue to be published up until that time.

When the Platform was first introduced almost four years ago it provided dependency management for a number of projects that were not managed by Spring Boot. In recent releases that number has decreased and would have continued to do so in the future as the Spring portfolio continues to evolve.

The decreasing difference between Spring Boot's dependency management and the Platform's dependency management means that offering the Platform as a separate choice no longer makes sense. All users of the Platform are encouraged to start using Spring Boot's dependency management directly, either by using spring-boot-starter-parent as their Maven project's parent, or by importing the spring-boot-dependencies…

Dear Spring community,

The Spring team hereby announces that the Spring for Apache Hadoop project will reach End-Of-Life status twelve months from today on April 5th, 2019. We will publish occasional 2.5.x maintenance releases as needed up until that point and will then move the project to the attic. The current Spring for Apache Hadoop 2.5.0 release is built using Apache Hadoop version 2.7.3 and should be compatible with the latest releases of the most popular Hadoop distributions.

The Spring Cloud Stream App Starter - HDFS Sink applications rely on the Spring for Apache Hadoop project…

Posting this on behalf of Mark Heckler, from the Pivotal evangelist team.

The last 12 months have been incredible for Spring developers. In that time, we’ve seen Spring Framework 5.0, Spring Boot 2, and Project Reactor go GA. We’ve also had new and updated component releases in every major Spring project! There’s never been a better time to be a Spring dev!

With all of these new tools and features, how can you keep up? How can you learn the most, in the shortest amount of time, from Spring team developers and key contributors? Come to SpringOne Platform, of course! This September 24-27 we…

It's that time of year again! It's an exciting time for Java developers with Java 9 freshly out the door, with the promise of a faster release cadence for the language itself in the air.
