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…

Last weeks' Spring Data Kay M1 is the first release ever that comes with support for reactive data access. Its initial set of supported stores — MongoDB, Apache Cassandra and Redis — all ship reactive drivers already, which made them very natural candidates for such a prototype. Let’s take a more detailed look at the new programming model and the APIs that make up that support.

Reactive Repositories

The repositories programming model is the most high-level abstraction Spring Data users usually deal with. They’re usually comprised of a set of CRUD methods defined in a Spring Data provided…

Recorded at SpringOne Platform 2016. Speaker: Dr. David Syer Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/leadership-election-with-spring-cloud-cluster

Leader election allows application to work together with other applications to coordinate a cluster leadership via a third party system. A leader can then be used to provide global state or global ordering, generally without sacrificing availability. In this presentation we show how Spring Cloud Cluster provides a simple abstraction for leader election and how it is implemented using zookeeper, hazelcast and etcd.

Note that 1.0.1 release…
