Azure Spring Apps is a fully managed service from Microsoft (built in collaboration with VMware), focused on building and deploying Spring Boot applications on Azure Cloud without worrying about Kubernetes.

And, the Enterprise plan comes with some interesting features, such as commercial Spring runtime support, a 99.95% SLA and some deep discounts (up to 47%) when you are ready for production.

Slow MySQL query performance is all too common. Of course it is. A good way to go is, naturally, a dedicated profiler that actually understands the ins and outs of MySQL.

The Jet Profiler was built for MySQL only, so it can do things like real-time query performance, focus on most used tables or most frequent queries, quickly identify performance issues and basically help you optimize your queries.

Critically, it has very minimal impact on your server's performance, with most of the profiling work done separately - so it needs no server changes, agents or separate services.

Basically, you install the desktop application, connect to your MySQL server, hit the record button, and you'll have results within minutes:

DbSchema is a super-flexible database designer, which can take you from designing the DB with your team all the way to safely deploying the schema.

The way it does all of that is by using a design model, a database-independent image of the schema, which can be shared in a team using GIT and compared or deployed on to any database.

And, of course, it can be heavily visual, allowing you to interact with the database using diagrams, visually compose queries, explore the data, generate random data, import data or build HTML5 database reports.

The Spring Framework is a mature, powerful and highly flexible framework focused on building web applications in Java.

One of the core benefits of Spring is that it takes care of most of the low-level aspects of building the application to allow us to actually focus on features and business logic.

Another strong point is that, while the framework is quite mature and well-established, it’s very actively maintained and has a thriving dev community. This makes it quite up to date and aligned with the Java ecosystem right now.

Of course, there’s a lot to learn to work well with Spring.

Let’s get started.

We’ll start with some core aspects of the framework first:

Next, let’s explore the basics of Spring Boot:

The Spring MVC framework is the foundation of building web applications with Spring.

Let’s start with some of the basics of building the MVC-style web application:

Let’s explore the RESTful support in Spring MVC:

Spring supports most persistence solutions out there:

Transactions with Spring and JPA (popular)
Spring JDBC (popular)
Spring Persistence Tutorial (Series)

Spring supports various technologies to access data:

Finally, let’s explore testing support in Spring:

Security with Spring (popular) (Series) How to Secure an MVC project, Login and Logout, how to Secure a REST Service using OAuth.
Spring Reactive Guide (Series) Learn about the reactive support in Spring
Spring Cloud Tutorial (Series) An overview of the Spring Cloud family of projects.
