SPRING INTEGRATION AND KAFKA BUMP CORE DEPENDENCIES OVERNIGHT
By RepoJournal · Filed · About Spring
Spring Integration pushed four dependency updates across Hibernate, Lettuce, Debezium, and SLF4J, all patch versions with no breaking changes.
Spring Integration moved fast on three fronts [1] [2] [3]. Hibernate Core jumped from 7.3.4.Final to 7.3.5.Final alongside Oracle JDBC 23.26.1.0.0 to 23.26.2.0.0, addressing underlying ORM improvements. Lettuce Redis client advanced from 7.5.1.RELEASE to 7.5.2.RELEASE, maintaining compatibility across Redis 2.6 through 8.x. Debezium's MySQL connector and embedded module both shipped 3.5.1.Final, a routine patch release for the change data capture layer. Over on Spring Kafka, SLF4J ticked from 2.0.17 to 2.0.18 [4], a logging infrastructure refresh. All four are patch-level bumps with high compatibility scores and no migration work required.
