On behalf of the Spring and Apache Geode communities, it is my pleasure to announce the release of Spring Session for Apache Geode (SSDG) 2.1.11.RELEASE, 2.2.5.RELEASE, 2.3.1.RELEASE and 2.4.0-RC1.

SSDG 2.1.11.RELEASE is pulled in by Spring Boot 2.1, SSDG 2.2.5.RELEASE by Spring Boot 2.2, SSDG 2.3.1.RELEASE by Spring Boot 2.3 and SSDG 2.4.0-RC1 by Spring Boot 2.4. All of these releases are primarily dependency alignment releases and pick up the latest Spring Data bits on which SSDG is strongly based.

Note

SSDG 2.4.0-RC1 is now based on Apache Geode 1.13.0. Given VMware Tanzu GemFire (formerly known as Pivotal GemFire) is now longer released by VMware, Inc. as a standalone, independently managed solution, SSDG 2.4 will no longer ship a spring-session-data-gemfire module. GemFire 9.10 was the last supported, standalone, independently managed version of GemFire, which was based on Apache Geode 1.12…

SBDG 1.1.10.RELEASE is based on Spring Boot 2.1.17.RELEASE, SBDG 1.2.10.RELEASE is based on Spring Boot 2.2.10.RELEASE, SBDG 1.3.4.RELEASE is based on Spring Boot 2.3.4.RELEASE and SBDG 1.4.0-M3 is based on Spring Boot 2.4.0-M3.
