Hi Spring fans! In this brief series we’re going to look at the Spring Cloud integration for Google Cloud Platform, called Spring Cloud GCP. Spring Cloud GCP represents a joint effort between Google and Pivotal that endeavors to provide a first class experience for Spring Cloud developers when using the Google Cloud Platform. Pivotal Cloud Foundry users will enjoy an even easier integration with the GCP service broker. These installments were written with help from Google Cloud Developer Advocate, and my buddy, Ray Tsang. You can also catch a walkthrough of Spring Cloud GCP in our Google Next…

Hi Spring fans and welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! If you're in the US, I hope you enjoyed your Labor Day weekend. I certainly did, gorging on the San Francisco sun and preparing for my O'Reilly online training for tomorrow, Bootiful Kotlin. I'm also busily preparing for the epic SpringOne Tour event in Istanbul, Turkey, customer visits in Atlanta, GA, and of course the epic tentpole SpringOne Platform event coming up later this month in Washington DC. If you're around, I sure hope to see you!

Well, let's get to it!

We are pleased to announce that Spring Batch 4.1.0.M3 is now available on Github and the Pivotal download repository. What's new in this milestone? Here is a list of new features and enhancements:

JSR-305 support

The main theme of this milestone is adding support for JSR-305 annotations. We leveraged Spring Framework's Null-safety annotations and added them where appropriate in all public APIs of Spring Batch.

These annotations will not only enforce null-safety when using Spring Batch APIs, but also can be used by IDEs to provide useful information related to nullability. For example, if a user wants to implement the ItemReader interface, any IDE supporting JSR-30…
