Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! It's Tuesday, February 7th, 2023, as I write this and I'm so very glad to be talking to you. How're you doin'?

Some housekeeping: I'll be doing more live streams over on my YT channel - join me and we'll talk shop.

I'm going to be in Chicago, IL, next week, and am wondering about doing an in-person livestream folks while I'm there? Anybody wanna meet at a café or something for a little code and coffee? Hit me up!

Hi, Spring fans! You're awesome! I know you're awesome. You know you're awesome. And the Spring team works for you. We like working for you because you dream awesome dreams and build awesome things. And we can't work effectively with and for you if we don't know where everyone stands.

Every year we put out the State of Spring survey, with respondents hailing from around the world and from organizations of every size and stripe. This year's results are even more interesting and exciting than the last! (You might even say they're awesome.)

The report has four sections:

• modern architecture in full flower
• new tech gaining ground
• upgrade and flourish
• and "Spring"-ing up to speed

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.
