**Greetings everyone!**

For our next event, we are heading to Haasrode near Leuven, the student capital of Belgium! We welcome you to Haasrode at Cegeka (check them out at: [cegeka.com](https://www.cegeka.com/en/be/)).

**We reserved the first hour for a few short talks!** See the schedule below for all info. In the next hour, we welcome Stéphane Nicoll "on the stage"! Are you still using Java 8? Or are you using Spring Boot? Then join us to learn why upgrading you stack to the latest Java 17, Spring Boot 3 and ahead of time will not only skyrocket your team's productivity but also reduce the startup time of your applications!

**Today's main topic**
The next generation of Spring applications is here! Spring Framework 6.0 brings an exciting new baseline for the entire Spring ecosystem: Java 17, Jakarta EE 9+. This is the foundation for Spring Boot 3.0 and the beginning of new major themes, ranging from AOT/Native to Observability.

During this presentation, Stéphane will cover the main topics of this new release:

* the new Java 17 and Jakarta EE 9 baseline
* the AOT/Native efforts for GraalVM native applications and efficient JVM apps
* the Spring Observability initiative and what it means for various components like RestTemplate, web controllers...
* the new Java interface clients for HTTP and other transports
* Support for RFC 7807 problem details
* and more!

**About our speaker**
**Stéphane Nicoll** has 20 years of experience in software engineering with a strong focus on API development on the JVM. After having spent more than a decade developing large scale Java enterprise applications in the geospatial, financial, or logistics sectors, he joins the core Spring Framework development team in 2014. Currently, Stéphane works on Spring Boot and leads start.spring.io, a service that helps millions of users start their next application.
