$ diff -q spring-data-gemfire spring-data-geode

Engineering | John Blum | October 26, 2017 | ...

Greetings Spring Community and Pivotal GemFire/Apache Geode Users-

One question I constantly get asked is, "What is the difference between Spring Data GemFire and Spring Data Geode?"

Now that Spring Data Geode is part of the Spring Data Release Train, beginning with Kay (see the official release announcement for more details), the timing is finally right to answer this question in an open forum.

To help answer this question, I set 2 simple objectives for both Spring Data GemFire and Spring Data Geode (collectively known as SDG^2 now):

  1. First, and most importantly, allow users to seamlessly interchange Spring Data Geode with Spring Data GemFire, and vice versa.

  2. Next, help users migrate their Spring Boot, Pivotal GemFire or Apache Geode based applications from their local development environment to a managed environment, like Pivotal CloudFoundry, with little to no code changes at all.

How to test Spring Cloud Stream applications (Part I)

Engineering | Artem Bilan | October 24, 2017 | ...

Dear Spring Community!

As an event-driven microservices framework, Spring Cloud Stream dramatically simplifies the complexity while developing event-driven applications. The feature capabilities and its benefits are not the focus of this article (to learn more, please review the Reference Guide), but instead, my goal is to show you what the framework has to offer from the testing standpoint, the tools, and techniques. This article is intended to encourage the community to share feedback on the existing testing infrastructure, so any thoughts, comments, or feature requests are welcome! We…

Engineering | Josh Long | October 24, 2017 | ...

Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring! Can you believe we're already staring down the end of October 2017? This year has flown by! What a rush! This week I'm home in sunny San Francisco talking to customers and giving talks.

I'll be speaking "at" the vJUG 24 online conference. The conference lasts 24 hours! There's a talk every hour, from as many timezones as possible! I hope you'll join me (and thousands of others) as we look at Reactive Spring at 04:00 GMT on Wednesday.

And, of course, I hope you'll register and join my friend and Grails co-founder Jeff Scott Brown and me for a look at Grails for Spring Developers

This release upgrades Reactor to Bismuth SR3, based on Reactor Core 3.1.1, picking up essential fixes in Reactor Netty. Furthermore, AspectJ 1.8.12 brings some welcome performance improvements to Spring AOP's pointcut expression evaluation at…
