That was fast. It took only 6 days between TypeSafe AI releasing Jev and having the Spring AI integration. Nice work @tzolov.bsky.social! The Spring AI Community org is what makes this possible. Projects can be released faster and independently from the Spring AI release.

Java SDK + Spring AI integrations for #TypeSafe AI's #Jev. Not a chat model! Send it a state and typed questions, get numbers back with a confidence, in ~300 ms. Judge, self-refine + guardrail advisors, RAG triage, tool selection. Blog: spring.io/blog/2026/09... @spring-ai.bsky.social

It's AI Week in Barcelona: - AI Summit Bcn (Sep 22โ€“23) - Claude Community House, 4 days of free sessions - Running Hackathon: build with voice agents while you run -50+ side events Happy to meet anyone working on AI, especially if you are working on the JVM. DM me, let's meet!

Spent the day kicking off preparations for Spring I/O 2027 with Jorge Rigabert at our new home in Valencia. Mark the dates: 28-30 April 2027. It's going to be a great edition. See you in Valencia!

And just like thatโ€ฆ Spring I/O 2026 is a wrap! I enjoyed every single moment last week, incredible talks, packed rooms, hallway conversations and a community that keeps proving why this conference is so special.

As an organizer, I spend the entire conference running from room to room, fixing things, and occasionally forgetting to eat lunch ๐Ÿ˜…. Which means I miss a lot of moments that make this event what it is. So Iโ€™d really love to hear from you. What made Spring I/O special for you?

And mark your calendars: we'll be back next year (28-30 April 2027), and it's going to be even better. See you in 2027 in Valencia! ๐Ÿ’š

if you're coming to @wasm.io in Barcelona, or are in or around Spain and could come but can't buy a ticket: I've got two tickets!! This is the best #webassembly conf there is. The first two people from whom I receive a communication here or at hachyderm.io/@squillace will get one of those tickets.

Itโ€™s happening. Yesterday at the Spring AI workshop, a Python developer told me his company decided to build their AI platform with Java+Spring AI. He mentioned the transition was smooth. We'll see more and more AI apps on the JVM. This is your sign to explore Spring AI.

Thank you for having me one more year @talentarena.bsky.social , it was inspiring to see so many people interested in Spring AI, we covered a lot of ground: the main building blocks, workflow patterns, agentic patterns, agentic protocols, all possible with Spring AI!

In the early days of @springio.net, I barely received any Spring Security related submissions, which I always missed. But this has completely changed in recent years. Security is not an afterthought anymore. What security concern didn't exist for you 5 years ago but does now?

Huge thanks to everyone who submitted a session for @springio.net 2026! So many great submissions, especially around AI, the selection is going to be extra tough this year. Wishing luck to everyone ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ€

โฐ Tomorrow is the LAST DAY to submit your session for Spring I/O 2026. If you've been thinking about submitting, this is your sign, do it now! Donโ€™t let the "I'll do it later" turn into "maybe next year".

Currently drafting the Spring Boot 4 / Java 25 migration plan for my current customer. How is your migration plan coming along? I've been testing with the different milestones and RCs, but now it's time to make it real!

Heard from a developer today: "I ran out of AI credits and can't continue the task." It's concerning to see devs can't ship code without AI. Will this become the norm for the next generation? We're told AI gives us a productivity boost, but maybe we're becoming too dependent.

๐ŸŽพ Nice combo for 2026! Spring I/O 2026 will take place the same week as the Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell, one of my favourite weeks of the year as a tennis lover. I never miss the tournament! If you join Spring I/O, you can also catch some world-class tennis right next door.

Spring Framework 7.0.0 dropped last week, laying the foundation for the next generation of Spring apps. Coming up this week: Spring Security 7.0.0 Spring Integration 7.0.0 Spring GraphQL 2.0.0 Spring Kafka 4.0.0 Spring AMQP 4.0.0 (among others) And of course, Spring Boot 4!๐Ÿ”ฅ

Tried the new Sonnet 4.5 with Junie, it consumes considerably more quota than GPT5 and the quality gains arenโ€™t clear enough, not worth the change as of now.
