Don't miss my new blog post in the Road to GA series to learn how the Spring team empowers Spring developers to make their Spring Boot 4 application null-safe, to reduce or remove the risk of NullPointerException and to solve "the billion dollar mistake"! spring.io/blog/2025/11...

I am happy to share that we have released Spring Boot 4.0.O-RC2.

RC2 adds some fine tuning for Spring projects that had to do a second RC as well. We've also swiftly reacted to changes in the community: Jersey released a 4.0.0 that is compatible with Jakarta EE 11 so its support was reinstated.

A new feature dropped on start.spring.io!

Because you all love YAML so much, we've added radio buttons to switch the configuration format from properties to YAML. Hope you brought a ruler and don't live in Norway!

It may not be obvious if you have not tried a #Spring Boot 4 RC yet, but I consider Spring Boot modularization as the most important enhancement that this new generation is introducing.

The Spring Boot team has just published a related blog post, this is a must read!

I have updated the blog post after Spring Boot 4.0.0-RC1 release, which restores in a deprecated form the Jackson 2 auto-configuration to help migrating, and Spring Security 7.0.0-RC1 one that leverages "safe default typing".

Thank you to everyone who joined our session on boosting Java performance with Project Leyden, Java 25, and Spring Boot! 🚀

@0.5ritter.de and I hope that you will apply the optimizations and tips we shared today. The slides we used:
www.slideshare.net/slideshow/su...

#JDK25 #SpringBoot #Performance
Supercharge your JVM performance with Project Leyden and Spring Boot
Many modern applications and tools rely on Java. Yet, their startup time and time-to-peak performance remain challenging, especially for microservices and Kubernetes workloads that require fast scaling and responsiveness. Project Leyden, an ambitious OpenJDK initiative, aims to overcome these performance bottlenecks. In this session, Ana and Moritz showed how you can take advantage of Leyden’s optimizations using Java 25 and Spring Boot. You also got practical techniques you can apply today, along with a peek into the ongoing work inside Leyden and what that means for the performance of your Java application. - Download as a PDF or view online for free
