Description

Spring is a framework widely used by the world-wide Java community, and it is also extensively used at CERN. The accelerator control system is constituted of 10 million lines of Java code, spread across more than 1000 projects (jars) developed by 160 software engineers. Around half of this (all server-side Java code) is based on the Spring framework.

Warning: the speakers will assume that people attending the seminar are familiar with Java and Spring’s basic concepts.

Spring 5.0 and Spring Boot 2.0 updates (45 min)

This talk will cover the big ticket items in the 5.0 release of Spring (including Kotlin support, @Nullable and JDK9) and provide an update on Spring Boot 2.0, which is scheduled for the end of the year.

Reactive Spring (1h)

Spring Framework 5.0 has been released - and it now supports reactive applications in the Spring ecosystem.

During this presentation, we'll talk about the reactive foundations of Spring Framework with the Reactor project and the reactive streams specification.

We'll also use the new WebFlux reactive web framework to create reactive web apps using the annotation-based model (like Spring MVC) and also the new functional flavor.
