Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How are you? This week I'm writing you from sunny Seattle, Washington, where we're having our next installment of the SpringOne Tour series. It's been a ton of fun seeing all these fun and friendly faces again and getting to see people, many of whom I haven't seen since before the pandemic! I've also had a lot of fun seeing some friends from some of the big cloud companies here, Microsoft and AWS. It's always interesting to learn how people are using the latest and greatest from Spring to build amazing systems and software…
