Spring Boot: Chapter 4
Moritz Halbritter - Broadcom
Spring Boot 4 is here! In this talk, we’ll blaze through the features like John Wick through the gangster underworld. This release is packed with a lot of nice stuff: Improved support for HTTP service clients, API versioning, a new OpenTelemetry starter, support for the RestTestClient, Jackson 3, and goodbye NullPointerExceptions with JSpecify. Just to name a few. And, of course, we’ll discuss the feature that most likely affects your applications: the modularized auto-configurations. We’ll uncover the story behind that feature and explain why this is a significant improvement for you (and the Spring Boot team).
After this talk, you’ll know exactly which new features you can use in your applications, and you’ll be totally prepared to upgrade your existing applications to Spring Boot 4.
