Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Big Data Speaker: Marius Bogoevici Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/stream-processing-at-scale-with-spring-xd-and-kafka In the recent years, drastic increases in data volume, as well as a greater demand for low latency have led to a radical shift in business requirements and application development methods. Near-realtime data processing has started to become more prevalent, and high-throughput messaging systems such as Apache Kafka have emerged as key building blocks. Focusing on developer experience and productivity, Spring XD makes it…

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Web / Javascript Track Speaker: Andy Wilkinson Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/documenting-restful-apis An API's documentation is a vital part of making it easy to understand and easy to use. RESTful APIs are no different. In this talk we'll look at what should be included in your RESTful API's documentation and, just as importantly, what should be omitted. Using real-word examples, both good and bad, we'll discuss how the documentation should be structured so that it's informative, succinct, and easy to read. Having identified what…

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Core Groovy Track Speaker: Fatima Casau Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/using-groovy-grails-in-your-spring-boot-project The emergence of Spring Boot has significantly improved the development of applications with Spring, allowing you to create applications faster by improving the configuration and removing repetitive tasks. Some of the dependencies that can be included are support for ‘Groovy’ and also the use of ‘GORM (Grails Object Relational Mapping)’ as well as ‘Hibernate’ for persistence. We will see where and how to use them in…

Kicking off 2016, here are my personal recommendations for European developer conferences with particularly strong Spring content in the first half of the year:

• Topconf Linz: Feb 1-3, featuring various Spring-related talks in the Cloud & Microservice Architectures track and a dedicated Spring Boot workshop ahead of the show. An English-language conference in my home-city which happens to be a tech hotspot in Austria...
• JAX Germany: Apr 19-21, with a well-established dedicated Spring track and several Spring-related talks across other conference tracks. Note: JAX is primarily a German-language conference, so the Spring talks there will be delivered in German as well.
• Spring I/O Barcelona: May 19-20, our new annual European Spring conference in its second iteration, at a perfect time for visiting the city of Barcelona! This will…

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015 Speakers: Dr. David Syer, Dr. Mark Pollack Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/message-driven-microservices-in-the-cloud

Do you need to build cloud-native microservices for distributed stream processing and data integration but don't know where to start? All you need is a single annotation in your code and a single dependency in your POM. The new Spring Cloud Stream project combines the power of Spring Boot, Spring Integration, and Spring Cloud to make that a reality.

In a nutshell, Spring Cloud Stream provides support for auto-configuration of…

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015 Speaker: Dr. Venkat Subramaniam Slides: No slides, all demo The new facilities in Java 8 is about the change the way we write code. Our code will become more expressive and concise. But, exactly how?

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015 Speakers: Simon Baslé, Laurent Doguin Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/practical-rxjava Web / JavaScript Track RxJava is an awesome library for async data streams. It is both expressive and powerful but the learning curve can be quite steep at first. So we want to quickstart developers into the world of Reactive eXtensions with more context than just listing operators! Adapted from a hands-on workshop, this talk will describe how one can migrate code into a fully async and RxJava-based application, built upon Spring Boot and Java 8. What kind…

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015 Track: Data / Integration Speaker: Christoph Strobl Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/boot-your-search-with-spring Abstract: Search has become a major part in our applications. We want to find, quick and easy! This session focuses on integrating search solutions like Solr, Elasticsearch as well as MongoDBs full text search into your application. We’ll have a look on Spring Data’s abstraction for those and do some hands on auto configuration using Spring Boot (100% XML free setup guaranteed).

Recorded at SpringOne2GX 2015. Track: Big Data Speakers: Sarah Aerni, Srivatsan Ramanujam, Jarrod Vawdrey Slides: http://www.slideshare.net/SpringCentral/data-driven-action-a-primer-on-data-science Abstract: In all industries, as software is eating the world, data is feeding software. However, to truly get value out of the data being generated, it must be analyzed and made actionable. Transformation in many industries actually means precisely this, data-driven action. From creating new television shows, to smart devices that help make your life easy, save precious limited resources, or…
