I'd like to announce the availability of Spring Modulith 0.5.1. The release primarily contains an important bug fix (the spring-modulith-runtime module accidentally contained a Logback configuration file only intended for test usage) and the usual upgrade to the latest Spring Boot version. Find more information in the full changelog, as well as reference documentation.

In case you are wondering about what the project is all about, Voxxed Days Zurich have published "Spring Modulith – Spring for Architecturally Curious Developers":

You get more straightforward pricing across your containerized applications since it costs the same as Azure Container Apps, but with added value for Spring apps.

How does this work? With the new plan, you can deploy apps that don’t need to run all the time or apps that have bursts of traffic and only pay for the resources used…
