The stream update and rollback functionality is implemented by delegating the deployment process to a new Spring Cloud project called Skipper. Skipper is a lightweight Spring Boot application, purpose-built to fill this feature gap in Data Flow. Skipper defines a package format, much like helm or brew and can also deploy/undeploy applications to multiple cloud platforms: Local, Cloud Foundry, and Kubernetes. It uses the same Spring Cloud Deployer libraries that have been part of Data Flow since the beginning. Recent presentations at SpringOne 2017 introduces Skipper and the …

This release closes a massive 313 issues and pull requests, and is our first release candidate. At this point we're not anticipating that any major API changes or new features will be added before our final 2.0 GA release.

• HTTP/2 support for Jetty (to go along with the Tomcat and Undertow that was added in M7)
• Greatly enhanced GSON support (thanks to an external contribution)
