Hi, Spring fans! In this installment we look at how to use Spring's AbstractRoutingDataSource to build multi-tenant JDBC database code.

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Batch 5.0.0-M2 is now available from our milestone repository.

This second milestone comes with two major features:

• Introduction of the new Observation API from Micrometer 2.0 which gives you both metrics and tracing for your batch jobs!
• Addition of SAP HANA as a supported database for the job repository

Moreover, this release comes with a number of enhancements and dependencies updates. For more details about all the changes, please check the change log.

I would like to thank all contributors who…

It finally happened! They did it! They did it just in time for me to get on the road and start building applications on the road with my shiny new laptop, too! JOY!! Oracle and the GraalVM team released GraalVM and the GraalVM native image capability for Apple M1! I've been waiting for this day for so, so, so long! I bought the first Apple M1 the day of the announcement way back in 2020 (does anybody remember that far back? That was, meteorologically speaking, the early pandemic period).

Apple's M1 devices are insanely fast, energy-efficient beasts of machines that run circles around all but the beefiest and latest-and-greatest Intel/NVidia configurations while also consuming a pittance of the power that other configuration does. In short, I'm a big fan…

Those of you who know the Spring Native experimental project are aware that the Spring team has been working on native image support for Spring applications since 2019. After a first beta in March 2021, we shipped an extensive revision of our Spring Native efforts in December 2021.

We’ve also announced at SpringOne last year that we intend to promote this work to Spring Framework 6.0 proper in the course of 2022. Following the release of our third milestone, this blog post walks you through what has been included already and what is coming next.

On behalf of everyone involved, I'm pleased to announce the availability of the sixth and final milestone of Spring for GraphQL on the way to 1.0. Our next stop is RC1 in 4 weeks, followed by the GA on May 17.

GraphQL Client

A GraphQL client is something we identified as a goal quite early on. It's issue number 10 from 336 at present in the issue tracker, but we viewed testing support as higher priority and so the GraphQL Tester came first and has been available from the start.

The Tester did prove valuable and popular, but we knew we had to fully explore the client before 1.0 as the two are…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Security 6.0.0-M3 and 5.7.0-M3 are available now.

This third 6.0 milestone covers build and release enhancements as well as the deprecation of WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter that was already released with 5.7.0-M2. The third 5.7 milestone covers several enhancements to SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0 support as well as a change to use UTF-8 by default for HTTP Basic credentials in Spring WebFlux.

For the release changes, please refer to the releases page.

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! Spring time is here! Astrologically and meteorlogically, speaking, of course. I love this season. Longer days, greener grass, bluer skies, and more. Next week, my family and I are headed to Hawaii for some much-needed R&R while my daughter has a week off from school. (It's hard to believe she might be going to college in another state in 18 short months! We need all the family vacations we can get together! T_T)

As always, we've got a lot to look at today, so let's dive right into it!

• First thing: Java 18 was released today! There are a ton new features, including UTF-8 by default, a simple HTTP server, a reimplementation of core reflection to use method handles, an SPI for internet resolution, an easier JavaDoc attribute to simplify the inclusion of code snippets in JavaDoc comments, and previews of a bunch of amazing new features including pattern matching for switch, Project Panama, the new Vector API (as in matrix multiplication, not a collection, exactly). There's also a switch you can use to disable finialization and finalizers, which you might want to try now to see if your application continues to do the right…

On behalf of the team, I’m pleased to announce Spring Data service releases 2021.1.3 and 2021.0.10. Both releases ship with mostly bug fixes and dependency upgrades. For your convenience, Spring Boot 2.6.5 respective 2.5.11 are going to pick up these releases in the upcoming days.

Along with the service releases, we released the next milestone 2021.2.0-M4 of the 2021.2 release train. Spring Boot 2.7.0-M3 will pick up this release soon. We have summarized the new and noteworthy changes in our 2021.2 release notes.

We have also released the next milestone 2022.0.0-M3 of the 2022.0 release train. Spring Boot 3.0.0-M2 will pick up this release. We have summarized the new and noteworthy changes in our 2022.0 release notes…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce that Spring Framework 6.0.0-M3 and 5.3.17 are available now.

Spring Framework 5.3.17 includes 17 fixes and improvements as well as a fix for CVE-2022-22950: Spring Expression DoS Vulnerability and is a recommended upgrade for all Spring production scenarios.

Spring Framework 6.0.0-M3 includes 33 additional fixes and improvements specific to the 6.0 branch.

This milestone brings a first batch of migration of our AOT (Ahead Of Time) efforts from Spring Native, paving the way for Native support in the wider Spring ecosystem. See the follow-up blog post…
