Hi, Spring fans! In this installment, we look at the amazing service connection mechanism in Spring Boot. Service connections are what allow Spring Boot to connect to Testcontainers or Docker Compose containers for supporting infrastructure like SQL databases, middleare, and more.

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment I talk to Spring Security community legend Laur Spilca, live from the Spring I/O show in beautiful Barcelona!

NB: I had an error in the AppCDS demo in the older video. This video supercedes that video, with a re-recorded segment on AppCDS. Make sure you're watching the latest of these two similarly titled videos!

Hi, Spring fans! In this installment we look at ways to make your applications go further, faster, with AppCDS, GraalVM, AOT on the JRE, and Project CRaC (coordinate restore at checkpoint)

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! As I write this I'm in beautiful Amsterdam, having visited with customers and spoken at a local Java User Group. Now I'm off to lovely London, UK. Last week I was in Krakow, Poland, for the amazing Devoxx PL event, and in Paris before that. It's really nice to a) have this relaxed pace and b) be in Europe during the summer months. I'm so used to being here in the frozen winter months. Amazing.

You know what else is amazing? The community! There's a ton of cool stuff to dive into this week, so let's get to it!

• In last week's installment of Spring Tips, I looked at the amazing Spring Modulith project.
• Speaking of Spring Modulith, BellSoft has a nice new blog series on it, too.
• I love this blog looking at their top four favorite features in Spring Boot 3.3.
• The good, the great, the inimitable Dr. Fabio Niephaus shares that the Apache Maven project is now shipping with a GraalVM native image for the Maven Daemon.
• I love this blog on static analysis for Spring projects from the folks at JetBrains.
• Spring Modulith 1.1.6 and 1.2.1 released.
• Spring Boot 3.3.1 is available.
• In last week's installment of A Bootiful Podcast, I talk to Cloud Native Spring in Action author Thomas Vitale…

I am delighted to announce the availability of Spring Modulith 1.1.6 and 1.2.1. The releases contain a few bug fixes, minor new features and the usual dependency upgrades. The highlights are the following:

• The ability to configure an ApplicationModuleDetectionStrategy via spring.modulith.detection-strategy – GH-656.
• Fixes in dependency verifications involving named interfaces – GH-661, GH-662.
• Upgrades to Spring Boot 3.2.7 (GH-675) and 3.3.1 (GH-678).

Find more information about the releases in the full change logs for 1.1.6 and 1.2.1.

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I'm happy to announce that Spring Boot 3.2.7 has been released and is now available from Maven Central.

This release includes 51 bug fixes, documentation improvements, and dependency upgrades. Thanks to all those who have contributed with issue reports and pull requests.
