In March, we introduced the Consumption pricing plan for Azure Spring Apps allowing you to start from zero and scale to zero vCPU. Today, we are thrilled to announce the public preview of the Standard Dedicated plan! The Standard Dedicated plan provides a fully managed, dedicated environment for running Spring applications on Azure. This plan offers you customizable compute options (including memory-optimized), single tenancy, and high availability to help you achieve price predictability, cost savings, and performance for running Spring applications at scale.

In 2019, Microsoft and Pivotal (now VMware) announced Azure Spring Apps, a fully managed service for Spring apps. We set out to solve many of the common challenges enterprise developers face when running Spring apps at scale. The service manages dynamic scaling, security patching, out-of-the-box instrumentation for monitoring, and more so developers can focus on their apps. Since then, we’ve worked with many customers including Bosch, Digital Realty, FedEx, Kroger, Liantis, Morgan Stanley, National Life, Raley's, and Swiss Re…

Dear Spring community,

Hope you enjoy Spring IO anniversary in Barcelona these days. I'm not there this years for many reasons. Either way, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Integration 6.1.0 is generally available now from Maven Central.

In addition, bug fixes version 5.5.18 has been released.

The Spring Integration 6.1 version is a natural evolution of 6.x generation with fixes and improvements which didn't make it into 6.0. Plus we listen to community and make some possibly, but convenient for target projects breaking changes.

Some highlights of this new version include:

• Upgrades to the latest dependencies, but only if they don't break the public API we expose

• Added Protobuf transformers support (shout out to Christian Tzolov)

• Migration of Zip extension to respective module in the core project

• The MessageFilter now emits a WARN log when a request message is dropped making it, technically, not silent as it was before

• Now gateways and replying handlers don't block forever for sending and receiving operations.

…
