Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Sergi Almar Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/building-modern-web-applications-with-angular2

Web development has become more complex in the last few years with a plethora of frameworks to choose from and no clear direction. Join Sergi Almar in this presentation to learn why Angular2 is a good fit for Spring developers. We'll review the Angular2 architecture and see how TypeScript allows us to build more maintable and clean applications having the benefits of a typed language. We'll look at the Angular2 component based model…

Getting up and running with Spring Cloud is a breeze. But once the initial setup is done, it needs to be complemented with an ecosystem that can cope with the extra operational complexity and quality concerns. While running Spring Cloud in production for over a year, Pivotal has integrated some interesting tools for documentation, operations and testing. During this talk you will see a demo of an integrated platform based on Spring Cloud, including tools like Spring Cloud Contract, wiremock, saboteur, ELK, Spinnaker, Spring Boot Admin and more. One of these tools is a dashboard for visualising…

Hi Spring fans! In this tip, we'll look at how to manage distributed transactions in Spring with JTA.

We are pleased to announce the first milestone of Spring AMQP 2.0 is now available.

For a complete list of changes; see the what’s new in the reference manual and the release notes.

Here are some highlights of this release

• The framework is now fully Java 8 based; several functional interfaces are provided for convenient Lambda implementations (callbacks, ReplyingMessageListener etc). Java 8 is now a requirement. It is also based on Spring Framework 5.0.

• The framework uses the new 4.0 amqp-client library.

• A new DirectMessageListenerContainer is now available alongside the existing SimpleMessageListenerContainer. The new container actually has a simpler architecture and the listener is called directly on the amqp-client thread (hence the name Direct…​). See Choosing a Container to help you decide which container is appropriate for your application.

Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! I can't believe how quickly this year has gone! This week I'm in Melbourne, Australia for the YOW! conference and then week it's off to Brisbane and then Sydney for the next editions of the same show. Australia is the furthest I've ever been from my 'native' timezone - so even though I always post This Week in Spring every Tuesday, I appreciate that it's still Monday for anybody west of Europe right now! Tonight, I'll join my pal, Intellij's Trisha Gee, and we'll be speaking at the Melbourne JVM User Group. I'm super excited to be here…
