Local Server: Getting Started Guide

Release Highlights

Stream updates and rollback

A streaming data pipeline orchestrated as a series of microservice applications has always been the core value of Spring Cloud Data Flow’s design. In 1.3.0.M3 we have provided the ability to update sources, processors, and sinks independently without having to undeploy and redeploy the entire stream.

The stream update feature is implemented by delegating the deployment process to a new Spring Cloud project called Skipper. Introduced in this blog, Spring Cloud Skipper is a standalone server that deploys Spring Boot applications to multiple cloud platforms. It also keeps track of the application version, application properties, and deployment properties of the deployed application or applications so that the changes to any of these…

Dear Spring community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spring Framework 5.0.2 and 4.3.13 are available now, as a pair of refinement releases which are recommended as immediate upgrades for all Spring users. They will also be part of the upcoming Spring Boot 2.0 M7 and 1.5.9 releases, respectively.

5.0.2 comes with significant tightening-up across the framework, including performance improvements and fine-tuned configuration variants. Many of those changes have been backported to 4.3.13 for streamlined consumption in existing applications.

Please note: Our Castor XML support is marked as deprecated now due to the inactivity of the Castor project. On a related note, we are effectively deprecating JDK 6 support in the 4.3.x line, ending our first-class efforts for it; more on this in a separate blog post…

On behalf of the entire team, I’d like to announce the availability of Ingalls SR9 and Kay SR2 releases. We didn't announce Ingalls SR8 at the time we shipped it, apologies for that. The service releases ship over 90 issues fixed in total and are recommended upgrades for all users.

For your convenience the service releases are going to be picked up in the upcoming Spring Boot 1.5.9 release, and Kay SR2 will be part of Spring Boot 2.0 M7. You can find the complete list of issues fixed here for Ingalls SR9 and here for Kay SR2.
