Hi, Spring fans! In this (relatively quick) installment, recorded live from the lovely Spring I/O 2023, Josh Long talks to Microsoft's Sean Li about some of the latest and greatest in the Azure ecosystem for Spring developers.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) are key components of securing communications between systems in a layered or service-oriented architecture.

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! And what an insane week it's been!

He and I (well, mostly him) did an awesome live demo setting up an Authorization Server, a Resource server, and OAuth OIDC client with login support. We did it all from scratch using Spring Boot 3.1, too! Check this out!
