Spring I/O 2019
The future of Spring Framework is reactive and it is at your fingertips.
The opening keynote
The Spring I/O conference took place in Barcelona at 16-17 May 2019. Big names of Spring Framework like Ben Hale and Jürgen Höller presented what is up with Spring in 2019.

What else?
You should also check out presentations of Josh Long. It’s always a treat to see him in action and this time he had four presentations.
Sébastien Deleuze had an interesting talk about Kotlin coroutines in reactive programming. He also advertised a fresh project named Kofu. It’s a functional approach to configuration of Spring Boot applications.
Maciej Walkowiak did a good job summarizing state of Java Relational Persistence in 2019.
