We’ve been experimenting adding authorization to @spring.io MCP Servers and Clients. We are working hard to make it easy to add security to your MCP components, it will take a few iterations. It’s a journey, and here’s the first step: adding oauth2 to the MCP Server. spring.io/blog/2025/04...

🚀 The MCP Java SDK core module provides default STDIO & SSE client/server transports - no external web frameworks needed! Build MCP clients/servers in plain Java with both Async (Reactor) & Sync APIs. Spring support is optional. 🔗 Minimal deps: central.sonatype.com/artifact/io....

github.com/roastedroot/... - A pure #java SQLite JDBC driver AOT compiled from c -> #WASM -> JVM Bytecode using chicory.dev AOT build time compiler. This opens the door for many tools and libraries to be easily ported to the JVM with no native dependencies..amazing 🤯

I recently spent some time building a Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server around an API and I learned some important lessons. I jotted those lessons in an article at thetalkingapp.medium.com/optimizing-a.... Check it out.

Zipkin OTel 0.2.0 has been released! github.com/openzipkin-c... Collector: Added an OTLP log endpoint to convert log events to span annotations Brave: Mapping of Brave tags to OTel attributes is now configurable

I have just merged into Spring Framework main branch the huge commit (3458 files changed) that migrates the codebase to JSpecify annotations. That will allow Spring Framework 7 and related portfolio projects to provide next-level null-safety support to avoid NullPointerException at runtime.

I’ve been using NullAway for a while (github.com/uber/NullAway). Just upgraded to JSpecify, from Spring nullability annotations. Easy upgrade, and let me tell you: it’s amazing. Take 5 minutes to read the docs, discover the powerful semantics, and you’ll be blown away by how obvious they are.
