Nice to see the flexibility of the Modular RAG functionality I implemented for Spring AI, here used to integrate your apps with TypeSafe AI Jev 🍃 Interesting blog post by @tzolov.bsky.social, Spring AI lead.

i reflected on my failings as an engineering leader integrating AI into my team (before i quit it entirely); the result is beware: chronicling over 30 real risks from first-hand experience of using LLMs on a software team brettcodes.com/beware/

Arconia for Spring Boot Dev Services and Observability #java #springboot

At @springio.net, I talked about some of the main features of @arconia.io, a modular toolkit for Spring Boot. Dev services, observability, multitenancy, generative AI, cloud native tooling. Pick what you need. Get a great developer experience. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYBF...

Multitenancy is one of the aspects for which I built @arconia.io, a modular toolkit for Spring Boot. Happy to see it used by @starbuxman.joshlong.com in his latest video, integrated with Spring Security and relying on new features he contributed. Thanks, Josh! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZep...

Nice to see my project @arconia.io featured on the latest "This Week in Spring" by @starbuxman.joshlong.com spring.io/blog/2026/08...

A new version of Arconia is out! It comes with an improved Ollama Dev Service for Spring AI and it's packed with new features and improvements for building multitenant applications with Spring Boot. Thanks so much @starbuxman.joshlong.com for contributing multitenancy support for JDBC and OAuth2!

It’s finally here 🤩 @hf.co

"Mistakenly, we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence and ingesting the design requirements that we had, that that would produce a high-quality product." www.independent.co.uk/tech/ford-ai...

We’re at a point where there are more packaging formats for agent skills/prompts/MCP than JavaScript frameworks.

Last spring, I had the privilege to present with my friend @whitneylee.com at Cloud Native Day Europe 2026 in the context of #KubeCon. We talked about "Rollout on Reception: Progressive Delivery for GenAI Apps Using Real-Time User Feedback". www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRcY...

Yup! It's official. Spring Cloud Contract is becoming stubborn.sh

The world of computing is and will remain far larger, more impactful, and far more vibrant than the narrow subdomain of genAI.

LF AI & Data Foundation recently launched the DocLang Working Group, founded by the Linux Foundation, IBM, Red Hat and ABBYY, to develop and maintain a specification that supports more reliable, interoperable document processing across AI and agentic workflows. Get involved: https://doclang.ai/

Introducing @modelplaneai.bsky.social: the open source control plane for AI inference. Built on Crossplane, it operates your GPU fleet as a unified inference platform. Any model, any engine, any infra. In Early Development. We’re building in the open. Join us → modelplane.ai

Hey @vivaldi.com, would it be possible to add @qwant.bsky.social as a built-in search engine option in your desktop browser? The mobile version of Vivaldi supports Qwant already, but not the desktop version. Thanks!

Spring AI 2.0 is now available 🚀 it supports both Spring Boot 4.0 and 4.1. I worked on automated OpenRewrite recipes to upgrade your applications to the new version, taking care of many breaking changes introduced in this new major. All free and open source. docs.arconia.io/arconia-migr...

Spring Boot 4.1 has been released yesterday 🚀 and Spring Boot 3.5 has received its final patch. From this month, it's officially out of OSS support. I've implemented OpenRewrite recipes to automate most of the migration process. All free and open source. docs.arconia.io/arconia-migr...

I'm looking forward to attending the @oredev.org conference for the first time and presenting about Java and AI! You can expect: 💻 live coding 🤖 live inference 🎹 live music oredev.org/program/86c8...

Arconia is an open-source, modular toolkit for extending Spring Boot. Dev services, observability, multitenancy, generative AI, cloud native tooling. Pick what you need. Get a great developer experience. arconia.io

At Spring I/O, I shared the main features of Arconia, modular extension to Spring Boot including profiles for dev/test, Dev Services for zero-code and zero-config integrations, full OpenTelemetry support, Docling for document processing, OpenRewrite recipes, and more www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYBF...

Nope, we have not changed our minds ✊

Using Spring Cloud AWS to integrate your Java apps with S3, DynamoDB, SQS? In this article, I show how to improve the workflows for local development and testing using Floci, an open-source AWS emulator by @hectorvent.bsky.social, and @arconia.io Dev Services. www.thomasvitale.com/spring-cloud...

If you have an exceptionally strong, automated CI pipeline with TDD and great test coverage, why are we still relying on asynchronous, manual gatekeeping instead of practising true continuous integration directly on the trunk? 🤔

It was really exciting to officially introduce Arconia at Spring I/O last month. Open-source extension improving the developer experience on Spring Boot. I talked about dev services, observability, automated migrations, agent skills, and a sneak peek at the upcoming dev UI. @arconia.io

In this new article, I explain how to integrate your Spring AI application with LangSmith for observability, supported by @opentelemetry.io and @arconia.io. www.thomasvitale.com/spring-ai-ob...

Observability is a key property of any production-grade application. Even more so for AI-infused apps. In this article, I show how to integrate Spring AI with OpenLit, an open-source AI observability platform, relying on @opentelemetry.io and @arconia.io. www.thomasvitale.com/spring-ai-ob... #java

I can see the appeal of using tools like Stainless to autogenerate an SDK in any language. However, producing a 31MB JAR file for a Java SDK just to call an HTTP service feels a bit excessive to me. That’s without even considering the forced Kotlin transitive dependencies, though I have a Java app!

Alina Yurenko on stage at #springio talking about Spring Native: The Future of Fast and Efficient Spring Applications @alina-yurenko.bsky.social @springio.net

Now on stage @glycin.bsky.social with a brilliant presentation about how he used Spring Boot to build videogames 🤩 #springio @springio.net

Watching @thomasvitale.com explain his Arconia framework for @spring.io development: very cool, will definitely give this a try. Community hero! 🦸‍♂️ #springio26

The day is here! Today, I'm presenting about my project Arconia and showing how it can improve your Java and Spring Boot developer experience: bootstrap new projects, manage agent skills, leverage dev services, automate migrations, and more! See you at @springio.net! @arconia.io #springio
