Spring Boot 3.2 and Spring Framework 6.1 Add Java 21, Virtual Threads, and CRaC
Spring Framework 6.1 and Spring Boot 3.2 run on Java 21. They make concurrent programming simpler and more efficient with virtual threads, as well as improving reactive programming and Kotlin coroutines. For “Scale to Zero” startup time reduction, the OpenJDK project CRaC received initial support, while the existing GraalVM Native Image integration got faster through a GraalVM release.

How Platform and Site Reliability Engineering Are Evolving DevOps
Companies are now looking to grow and more effectively manage DevOps with platform engineering and site reliability engineering roles. No one has these roles perfectly carved out right now — there’s just too much to do and not enough people to do it — but knowing where these three disciplines do and don’t overlap will help organizations evolve and take advantage when they are ready.

Understanding Architectures for Multi-Region Data Residency
This article focuses on implementing data residency strategies for a positive stakeholder experience. It underscores the need to diversify data locations, driven by motivations like disaster recovery and geo-redundancy. The core principle is data distribution, ensuring specific sets reside in distinct regions without overlap - a practice termed data residency.

Beyond API Compatibility: Understanding the Full Impact of Breaking Changes
In this article, we address the most contentious and misinterpreted parts of the SemVer standard, i.e backward compatibility and breaking changes. With the proliferation of SaaS APIs for Generative AI continuing, now is a good time for a retrospection on what constitutes a breaking change and how you can trade off backward compatibility and upgradability with modernization and iterability.
