Spring Framework 6.1 M2 introduces the RestClient, a new synchronous HTTP client. As the name suggests, RestClient offers the fluent API of WebClient with the infrastructure of RestTemplate.

Fourteen years ago, when RestTemplate was introduced in Spring Framework 3.0, we quickly discovered that exposing every capability of HTTP in a template-like class resulted in too many overloaded methods. In Spring Framework 5, we therefore used a fluent API for the reactive WebClient. With RestClient we are introducing a HTTP client that offers an API similar to WebClient, and that uses the message converters, request factories, interceptors, and other underlying components of RestTemplate…

Active health check strategies with Spring Cloud Gateway

Nowadays, applications are built as a collection of small independent upstream services. This accelerates development and allows modules to be focused on specific responsibilities, increasing their quality. This is one of the main advantages of using a microservice approach. However, jumping from one service to another can add extra latency, and this latency can be dramatically higher when the services are not responding.

If you run microservices, you want to prevent your upstream services from being called when they are not working…
