In this installment of the pod we talk to Madhura Bhave, an engineer on the Spring Boot team who has improved the project in big ways - working on things like security, actuator, OAuth and more - since she moved from her epic run on the Cloud Foundry and UAA teams. We recorded this interview in August of 2018.

Hi Spring fans! In this installment of Spring Tips we look at how to use the reactive WebFlux client to make a number of concurrent requests to distinct service instances (discovered using a service registry like Netflix Eureka or Consul through the Spring Cloud DiscoveryClient abstraction) and meet SLAs by using the fastest request to return.

Suppose you want to use Spring Boot, but you don’t want to @EnableAutoConfiguration. What should you do exactly? In an earlier article I showed that Spring is intrinsically fast and lightweight, but one of the short pieces of advice improve startup time was to consider manually importing the Spring Boot autoconfigurations, instead of sucking them all in automatically. It won’t be the right thing to do for all applications, but it might help, and it certainly won’t hurt to understand what the options are. In this piece we explore various ways of doing manual configuration and assess their…

The Spring Framework has migrated its entire history of issues from Jira to GitHub. The goal of this blog post is to provide you with context and details about this move.

Migration Details

The entire 15+ year history of every Spring Framework issue, and every comment, has been imported into GitHub. There is a lot to consider in such a move, so let's take a tour and go over some details.

Links

If you have a link to an existing issue, e.g. https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-16751, you'll be redirected to the corresponding GitHub issue. If you actually mean to go to the Jira issue, append the query parameter redirect=false. On the GitHub side, the imported issue has a link…
