Presentations

Spring Rebooted

In this session, we'll see how to build real Spring applications using Spring Boot. We'll also look under the covers to see what makes Spring Boot tick.

Spring Boot and Beyond

In this session, we'll open the hood on Spring Boot and see how it works. Using this knowledge, we'll look at ways to optimize Spring Boot, override autoconfiguration, and create custom extensions to Spring Boot's Actuator.

Cloud Native Spring

In this session, we'll explore Spring Cloud, the extension to Spring which addresses many of the common challenges of developing cloud native applications. We'll focus primarily on Spring Cloud's support for centralized configuration, service discovery, and failover/monitoring.

Cloud Native Data Integration

In this session, we'll look at Spring Cloud Data Flow, a cloud native programming and operating model for composable data microservices on a structured platform.
