Only 2 years after its inception, Spring Boot is already very popular amongst Spring developers. If you’re familiar with Spring MVC, you may wonder how Spring Boot can improve your web development experience and how its internals work.

First we’ll go over the basics of a REST service powered by Boot. We’ll then gradually add more features that are typical to modern web applications. Along the way, we’ll see how Boot…

In the space of Big Data, Pivotal offers two powerful data processing tools namely HAWQ and GemFire. HAWQ is a scalable OLAP SQL-on-Hadoop system, while GemFire is OLTP like, in-memory data grid and event processing system. This presentation will show different integration approaches that allow integration and data exchange between HAWQ and GemFire. The practical experience in applying Spring Boot and Spring XD…

In this session we will demonstrate how to work effectively with Spring projects in Eclipse and the Spring Tool Suite (STS). We will demo all the latest enhancements in the tools including features like much smarter property file editing. We will also demonstrate new features in the Eclipse 4.5 (Mars) platform. Going beyond basic application development we will look at how to build and work…

Guest Speaker: Micah Silverman, Java Developer Evangelist, Stormpath

Join Stormpath Java Developer Evangelist Micah Silverman for a technical overview of the common pain points with Java authentication. We'll cover how to solve them with Stormpath in a Spring Boot application, and demonstrate how to quickly add a complete user management system to your Spring Boot app.

Entering Reactive Streams Era

Reactor 2.0 development started by the end of 2014, around the same time as Reactive Streams. We were keen on joining the effort and early adopt a backpressure protocol to mitigate our main message-passing limitation: bounded capacity. We delivered in Reactor 2.0 the first attempt to make Reactive Streams implementations of RingBuffer-based schedulers and derived an increasingly popular reactive pattern: Reactive Extensions.

Meanwhile, Reactive Streams started getting traction and an entire ecosystem of libraries discussed this transition. The regular concern ? Implementing Reactive Streams semantics is all but an easy task. We observed an increasing need for a reactive foundation to solve message-passing and implement common streaming operators. We therefore created a dedicated project space for Reactor Core and started a focused effort with Spring Framework team…

NetBeans IDE is the official IDE of the Java platform. Focused on rapid out-of-the-box development of all kinds of Java applications, NetBeans is comprehensive and easy to use. In particular, its free and open source tooling for end-to-end development is much admired. Over recent years, many developers have added NetBeans to their toolbox because of its intuitive and powerful integration with Maven and Gradle. During this session you will see how NetBeans is well suited for setting up and developing applications that make use of Spring Boot. You will also learn about the many new features that have been added in NetBeans IDE 8.0 and 8.1, helping you working quickly and effectively with Java and Maven in the context of Spring Boot. By the end of this session, you'll have a better grasp of Spring Boot, as well as a thorough understanding of the range of features that NetBeans provides for working with it!

Update: a comprehensive Spring Boot + Kotlin tutorial is now available.

Just in time for Kotlin 1.0 release, we are adding support for Kotlin language to https://start.spring.io in order to make it easier to start new Spring Boot projects with this language.

This blog post is also an opportunity for me to explain why I find this language interesting, to show you a sample project in detail and to give you some tips.

What is Kotlin?

Kotlin is a language created by JetBrains. It runs on top of the JVM (but not only), it is an object oriented language that includes many ideas from functional programming. I won't go too much in details about all Kotlin features (PDF, HTML…

I was inspired by OpenZipkin contributor and Spring Cloud Sleuth and Zipkin contributor Adrian Cole's epic talk introducing Zipkin to write this particular post. There's so much epic stuff in that talk, so once you're done reading this, go watch that!

Advances in technology and cloud computing have made it easier to stand up and deploy services with ease. Cloud computing enables us to automate away the pain (from days or weeks (gasp!) to minutes!) associated with standing up new services. This increase in velocity in turn enables us to be more agile, to think about smaller batches of…

On behalf of the Spring Data team I'm happy to announce the first milestone of the Hopper release train. The release ships 250 tickets fixed! The most important new features are:
