Join the first MN Spring meetup, hosted by Josh Long!

• What we'll do
We will kick off the first ever Spring meetup for the Twin Cities. Our goal is to establish a spring community where developers can learn how to build better software leveraging all things spring.

Agenda: (5:30 - 8:30 PM)
5:30 - 6:15 Pizza and Beer will be available / Networking Time
6:15 - 6:30 Welcome / Kickoff by Organizers and Sponsors
6:30 - 8:00 Bootiful Reactive Microservices by Josh Long ***
8:00 - 8:30 Networking Time / Josh will be around for any additional questions

***When you move to microservices you invite the complexity of distribution into your architecture. Thankfully, we can stand on the shoulders of giants and use frameworks like Spring Boot and Spring Cloud to address this complexity. In this talk, we're going to revisit these technologies in the light of the newly integrated support for reactive programming, starting from Spring Framework 5, Spring Boot 2.0, and Spring Cloud Finchley.

• What to bring
Something to take notes with and a desire to learn, share and network!
