That is why, today at SpringOne, we are happy to announce the general availability of Microsoft Azure Spring Cloud—a fully managed service for Spring Boot apps.

Spring Cloud Data Flow (SCDF) for Kubernetes 1.1 is now generally available, building on the open source SCDF version 2.6 released in August.
