Presentations

Essential Spring Boot

In this example-driven presentation, you'll learn how to leverage Spring Boot to accelerate application development, enabling you to focus coding on logic that drives application requirements with little concern for code that satisfies Spring's needs.

Extreme Spring Boot

In this session, you'll learn how to take your Spring Boot skills to the next level, applying the latest features of Spring Boot. Topics may include Spring Boot DevTools, configuration properties and profiles, customizing the Actuator, and crafting your own starters and auto-configuration.

Essential Spring Data

In this session, you'll learn how to use Spring Data to rapidly develop repositories for a variety of database types, including relational (JPA and JDBC), document (Mongo), graph (Neo4j), and others (Redis, Cassandra, CouchBase, etc).

Extreme Spring Data

In this session, you'll see how to take Spring Data's automatic repository generation to a whole new level. We'll look at ways to model data and manipulate Spring Data to produce repositories and APIs that are more than just CRUD layers on top of a database.

Reactive Spring

In this session, we'll explore the new reactive features in Spring 5 to build reactive, non-blocking applications using Spring's familiar programming model.
