Spring Framework 6.0 goes GA
<p>Dear Spring community,</p> <p>It is my pleasure to announce that Spring Framework 6.0.0 is generally available from Maven Central now! This is the start of a new framework generation for 2023 and beyond, embracing current and upcoming innovations in OpenJDK and the Java ecosystem. At the same time, we carefully designed it as a straightforward upgrade from Spring Framework 5.3.x for modern-day runtime environments.</p> <p>As a major revision of the core framework, Spring Framework 6.0 comes with a Java 17+ baseline and a move to Jakarta EE 9+ (in the <code>jakarta</code> namespace), with a focus on the recently released Jakarta EE 10 APIs such as Servlet 6.0 and JPA 3.1. This provides access to the latest web containers such as <a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html">Tomcat 10.1</a> and the latest persistence providers such as <a href="https://hibernate.org/orm/releases/6.1/">Hibernate ORM 6.1</a>. Don’t be stuck on Java EE 8, make the leap to the <code>jakarta</code> namespace, ideally straight to the Jakarta EE 10 level! The upcoming Spring Boot 3.0.0 release includes corresponding managed dependencies for you.</p>
