Spring Framework maintenance roadmap in 2020 (including 4.3 EOL)

Releases | Juergen Hoeller | December 03, 2019 | ...

Dear Spring community,

With Spring Framework 5.2.2 and 5.1.12 being available now, let me take the opportunity to provide an update on the maintenance roadmap in 2020.

Most importantly, Spring Framework 4.3.x and therefore Spring Framework 4 overall will reach its end-of-life next year: Our EOL cut-off is December 31st, 2020, with no further support on 4.3.x beyond that point. At the same time, we are also phasing out 5.0.x and 5.1.x for good.

As for planned releases, first up is a full round in mid January: with 5.2.3 and 5.1.13 accompanied by 5.0.16 and 4.3.26. The latter are the last…

Spring Integration AWS 2.3 GA and Spring Cloud Stream Kinesis Binder 2.0 GA Available

Releases | Artem Bilan | November 27, 2019 | ...

Dear Spring Community,

Today it’s my pleasure to announce General Availability of Spring Integration for Amazon Web Services extension version 2.3.0 and Spring Cloud Stream Binder for AWS Kinesis version 2.0.0.

These releases can be downloaded from Maven Central, JCenter, and our release repository:

compile "org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-aws:2.3.0.RELEASE"

If you don’t use Kinesis Binder. Or via Binder dependency:

compile "org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-stream-binder-kinesis:2.0.0.RELEASE"

Release Highlights

  • The main theme of both these releases is about an integration testing using a Local Stack framework which helped us to spot several bugs and race conditions in both libraries.

  • The spring-integration-aws provides a PutRecordsRequest (batch) support for KplMessageHandler collecting async results for UserRecords in that batch using Project Reactor Mono.fromFuture() functionality.

  • A KinesisShardEndedEvent is now emitted from the KinesisMessageDrivenChannelAdapter when the next shard request returns null with the meaning that shard is closed and no records can be added to that any more.

  • The spring-cloud-stream-binder-kinesis is based on the recently released Spring Cloud Stream version 3.0 and provides a new KinesisBinderHealthIndicator to check that all the streams involved in binding configurations are available.
