Dear Spring community,

On behalf of Spring Integration team, it is my pleasure to announce 6.2.0-M3 version which is available from Spring Milestone repository.

In addition, bug fixes version 6.1.3 has been released as well into Maven Central.

Since the previously announced Milestone 1, these changes have made it into a new Spring Integration generation:

• The documentation migrated to Antora site generator and hosted alongside with other migrated Spring projects here

• The project build lifecycle is now connected to Gradle Enterprise, so every one contributing can now benefit from remote shared cache for Gradle tasks

• The LockRegistry interface provides a template-like executeLocked() API:

Dear Spring community,

On behalf of Spring Integration team, it is my pleasure to announce 6.2.0-M1 version which is available from Spring Milestone repository.

In addition, bug fixes version 6.1.2 has been released as well into Maven Central.

The Spring Integration 6.2 version is based on the Spring Framework 6.1.0-M2 (can be upgraded to the latest 6.1.0-M3) and includes many internal improvements and refactoring to support JVM virtual thread and project CRaC effort.

Some highlights of this new version include:

• Upgrades to the latest dependencies, some of they are release candidates and milestones

• We now use org.eclipse.angus:jakarta.mail as Java Mail API implementation which replaces com.sun.mail.imap package with the org.eclipse.angus.mail.imap. Therefore this some kind of breaking change

• A spring-integration-debezium module has been introduced with a DebeziumMessageProducer implementation and respective infrastructure, including Java DSL (shout out to Christian Tzolov)

• Pollers now can be configured with an ISO 8601 duration format for delays

• Components which logic is based on thread executors now expose a proper AsyncTaskExecutor option to let end-user to opt-in for a new VirtualThreadTaskExecutor from Spring Framework.

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.

Dear Spring community,

Today I'm excited to share with you news that Spring Integration extension project for AWS and AWS Kinesis Binder for Spring Cloud Stream have finally been moved to AWS Java SDK v2, their respective milestones 3.0.0-M2 & 4.0.0-M1 are available from Spring Milestone repository.

I cannot tell that this was a pleasant work to do because it has turned to be not just a plain dependencies upgrade and namespace renaming. The whole AWS SDK API was changed to more modern Java style, including CompletableFuture composition and Stream API, lambda-style configuration, generated…

Hey Spring Community!

I hope you are enjoying Spring One Essentials these days. The most exciting feature for me is an Observability which is spread throughout the Spring portfolio from now on. Nevertheless, today I’d like to share with a project I’m working on since holidays, where the mentioned observability makes a perfect sense, too.

I’ll start from the far. Let’s imagine we are learning a new programming language! I do learn Go to better understand Kubernetes, for example. Of course, we deal with some primitives and basic structures, first of all. Then we implement some well-known…

Dear Spring community,

On behalf of the team, it is my very great pleasure to announce that Spring Integration 6.0.0 is now generally available and can be found in Maven Central.

This release is the culmination of more than a year of work. A massive thank you to everyone that has contributed, and to all the early adopters that have been providing vital feedback on the milestones.

This version is fully based on Spring Framework 6.0, Spring Data 2022.0, Spring for GraphQL 1.1, Spring WebServices 4.0 and many other major releases of Spring portfolio projects which contribute to their respective integration modules. On the other hand Spring Integration 6.0 is a part of recently released Spring Boot 3.0…

Dear Spring community,

I was so eager to find and fix bugs in the latest Spring Integration release, that missed to announce a 6.0 RC1 last week. But I believe it is still worth to mention it even after Spring Boot 3.0.0-RC1 announcement since there is a number of notable changes and improvements.

So, please, welcome Spring Integration 6.0 first Release Candidate. It can be obtained from Spring Milestone repository:

dependencyManagement {
    imports {
        mavenBom 'org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-bom:6.0.0-RC1'
    }
}

Here you can find important changes after the previously announced Spring Integration 6.0.0-M5…

Dear Spring community,

I’d like to share with you an availability of the latest Milestone 5 of new Spring Integration 6.0 generation.

It can be obtained from Spring Milestone repository:

dependencyManagement {
    imports {
        mavenBom 'org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-bom:6.0.0-M5'
    }
}

Also, Spring Integration 5.5.15 has been released with some critical bug fixed and upstream dependencies deprecation resolutions. It is recommended to upgrade if you have missed some intermediate releases before or just pull it transitively from upcoming Spring Boot 2.6.12 or 2.7.4!

With the whole Spring portfolio move to Java 17 and Jakarta EE, it was a tremendous internal framework refactoring to support new Java language level and jakarta…

Happy New Year, Spring community!

Hope you had great holidays and ready for new excitements in front of us.

After the rest and recharging during Christmas break I decided to pay honor to my favorite language back in days - Groovy.

And now it’s my pleasure to present you a brand new Groovy DSL for Spring Integration. You perhaps heard about our old attempt to make a Groovy DSL on top of Spring Integration XML support. But the solution was pretty cumbersome (especially for protocol-specific channel adapters) and support burden has grown tremendously. This my latest implementation is fully based…
