Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How're you doing? I'm still fresh off my little vacation last week, feeling fantastic. I've spent the last several days working with Spring Boot and Spring Native and I have to tell you, they're epic.

It's gotten to the point where I sometimes spend time working on enabling Spring Native integrations for other projects - it really makes some third party abstractions come alive! It's hard to know what the right comparison is. There's not much you can do in this life that results in such an instantaneous, night-and-day difference in performance and memory profile with so few (user-visibile) changes.

Hi, Spring fans! We wrapped up the epic SpringOne Tour installment for May a couple of days ago. Here's the Day 1 recording - Booternetes II: The YAML Strikes Back - featuring yours truly, Mark Heckler, Mario Gray, David Turanski, Tiffany Jernigan, Chris Sterling, and special guest star, Kubernetes cofounder, Joe Beda.

Today, we’re excited to announce the availability of the Azure Pipeline Task for deploying Spring Boot applications to Azure Spring Cloud. You can get started by building your pipelines using the Azure Spring Cloud task to automate Spring Boot application deployments to any number of environments and Azure Regions.

Over the past 18 months, we worked with many enterprise customers to learn about their scenarios including thoughts on automating end-to-end from idea to provisioning Azure resources to building Spring Boot applications to deploying those applications to production. Many of these…
