Hi, Spring fans! Can you believe it's nearly December 2021? I'm still getting used to the idea that we're already in 2021 and now the year's nearly behind us! Stop the world, I want off! Time's flying.

I've been up to my eyeballs in Spring Tips video production. I can't wait for you to see tomorrow's installment (@SpringTipsLive)!

We've also got some great podcast interviews lined up. As always, new episodes drop on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, etc., every Thursday night (California time)/Friday (for most of the world). Don't miss it (@BootifulPodcast)!

You could also just check out my blog (joshlong.com) for the upcoming appearances, podcasts, Spring Tips videos, etc. The trouble is that the blog is otherwise pretty boring. My boring content notwithstanding, it's a plain l'il page on the internet, and I've been wanting to mix it up…

On behalf of the community, it is my pleasure to announce the general availability of Spring Security 5.6. This release is the result of the work that went into 5.6.0-M1, 5.6.0-M2, 5.6.0-M3, 5.6.0-RC1, and 5.6.0.

You can find the highlights of 5.6 in the What’s new section of the Spring Security reference.

As always, we look forward to hearing your feedback!

On behalf of the team, I’m pleased to announce the availability of the Spring Data 2021.0.7 and 2020.0.15 service releases.

Both releases are built on top of Spring Framework 5.3.13. For your convenience, you can consume Spring Data 2021.0.7 and 2020.0.15 through the upcoming Spring Boot releases, 2.5.7 and 2.4.13, respectively.

2020.0.x reached its end of life and will no longer be part of regular OSS releases. If you are still on this version, please consider upgrading at your earliest convenience.

Both service releases ship with mostly bug fixes and dependency upgrades.

To round things off…

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of Spring Tips! In this installment, I wanted to share with you the keynote that Google's James Ward (@_JamesWard) and I put together for the recent Reactive Summit 2021 event, titled: "Reactive, Here and There."

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! How're you doin'? I'm doing alright! It's been raining cats and dogs here in San Francisco. California, the state where I live, dearly needs the rain, so it's a positive, I suppose. But it still feels miserable. Between the daylights savings time shortening the daylight significantly and the rain, it's a gloomy kind of day. At least there's a lot of good stuff to read! Let's dive right into it!
