Title: Cloud Foundry for Spring Developers

Session abstract:

This session provides an overview of how to build and deploy Spring-based applications to the Cloud Foundry platform.
The session will cover application configuration parameters, binding services to your application, deployment options using using STS, the vmc command tool, as well as the new Apache Maven plugin for Cloud Foundry. Gunnar will demonstrate how to deploy applications to both micro and public Cloud Foundry and will also show how debugging works with Cloud Foundry and how you can inspect services remotely using Caldecott.

Gunnar will also show various options to keep your War-files deployable to both Cloud Foundry and stand-alone Servlet Containers using Auto-Reconfiguration, the Cloud namespace, and Spring 3.1 profiles.

Lastly, he will give a high-level overview how you can use Cloud Foundry together with Spring Integration in order to create scalable Spring applications.

Maven and Cloud Foundry - The plugin is here!

It has been an amazing time so far for me working at SpringSource for the past couple of months and today I have finally published my first blog post for the official SpringSource blog. The blog post also marks the Milestone 1 (M1) release of the Cloud Foundry Maven Plugin which will make it much easier for Maven users to deploy their applications to Cloud Foundry.

Thus, checkout the blog post, use the plugin and follow the project over at GitHub. Please provide plenty of feedback - it is highly appreciated!
