You might have heard about the end of public updates for Java 7, coming up in just a few days with the release of Java 7 update 80. See the following Oracle pages for a reference:
Let's clarify what it really is: the end of public updates, and by no means an end of life (EOL). With the second link above, scroll down to the "Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap" section and you'll find the actual EOL dates: Dec 2018 for Java 6 and Jul 2022 for Java 7. Yes, that's another…
Building an Enterprise Application Stack means the necessity to have a service tier that can scale to the demands of business. This talk will discuss the approach to developing a scalable enterprise architecture, and will demonstrate implementations based on the variety of technologies available from the Groovy ecosystem, including Grails, Spring, Spring Boot, and Spring Integration.
Groovy has a very easy learning curve for Java developers, so many people become Groovy users without realizing all it can do. This presentation will examine features of Groovy that can make your life easier once you're past the initial adoption stage. Prerequisite: Some Groovy knowledge
Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! As usual, we've got a lot to cover so let's get to it!
Spring Security lead Rob Winch just announced the amazing Spring Security 4.0 release! This one is packed with amazing features including websocket support, Spring Data integration, enhanced testing support, and much improved defaults
The Cloud Foundry Java buildpack now supports overriding inbuilt configuration through the use of well-named environment variables! This means you can tweak all manner of the default behavior without needing to fork the buildpack!
Good news! Spring XD 1.1.1 is released! It includes improved performance and offset management when using Kafka message bus, support for Spark's streaming reliable receiver, Kryo serialization improvements, RabbitMQ auto-cleanup options and a Sqoop…
GORM is a super powerful ORM tool that makes ORM simple by leveraging the flexibility and expressiveness of a dynamic language like Groovy. With GORM developers get access to all of the power and flexibility of an ORM tool like Hibernate without any of the complexity.
Polymer is the latest web framework out of Google. Designed completely around the emerging Web Components standards, it has the lofty goal of making it easy to build apps based on these low level primitives. Along with Polymer comes a new set of Elements (buttons, dialog boxes and such) based on the ideas of "Material Design". These technologies together make it easy to build responsive, componentized "Single Page" web applications that work for browsers on PCs or mobile devices. But what about the backend, and how do we make these apps secure? In this talk Scott Deeg will take you through an introduction to Polmyer and its related technologies, and then through the build out of a full blown cloud based app with a secure, RESTful backend based on Spring REST, Spring Cloud, and Spring Security and using Thymeleaf for backend rendering jobs. At the end he will show the principles applied in a tool he's currently building. The talk will be mainly code walk through and demo, and assumes familiarity with Java/Spring and JavaScript.
JHipster focuses on generating a high quality application with a Java back-end using an extensive set of Spring technologies; Spring Boot, Spring Security, Spring Data, Spring MVC (providing a framework for websockets, REST and MVC), etc. an Angular.js front-end and a suite of pre-configured development tools like Yeoman, Maven, Gradle, Grunt, Gulp.js and Bower. JHipster creates a fully configured Spring Boot application with a set of pre-defined screens for user management, monitoring, and logging. The generated Spring Boot application is specifically tailored to make working with Angular.js a smoother experience. Join Julien for a quick-live coding session to build a simple application, and deploy it to Cloud Foundry.
