Spring Cloud Data Flow team is pleased to announce the first milestone release of 2.6.0.

This 2.6.0-M1 adds some bug fixes and the following features:

• Composed Task Runner as SCDF native module Composed Task Runner is now an integral part of SCDF itself and gets registered implicitly while the users who have the custom composed task runner can still override the native one. This enables us to integrate the composed tasks management within the context of Spring Cloud Data Flow. This change also allowed us to provide some additional user experiences when managing composed tasks. .

• Improvements in task applications management This milestone added some improvements at the backend such as the ability to uniquely identify the task elements inside the composed task, adding task manifest as part of the last ran task definition, ability to cleanup task related resources as part of task definition cleanup along with the SCDF dashboard changes.

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of a Bootiful Podcast. In this episode Josh Long (@starbuxman) talks to Kubernetes guru and colleague Paul Czarkowski (@pczarkowski) about Austin, TX BBQ, Kubernetes and so much more.

I would like to use the opportunity of our Spring GraalVM Native 0.7.0 release to give you a status update about our work on Spring Boot native images.

Why?

Native image provides a way to build and run Spring Boot applications with different characteristics than a regular JVM deployment:

• The output is a native executable that contains your application with a subset of the JDK and the dependencies required to run it.

• In practice the executable would likely be shipped in an highly optimized container image (FROM scratch Docker image is supported) with reduced surface attack which is good fit with Kubernetes.

• Startup time is almost instant and peak performance is available immediately, allowing support for scale-to-zero (serverless) applications including for regular Spring Boot web applications.

• Memory consumption is reduced, which is a good fit for systems split into multiple microservices.
