Java Buildpack Year in Review
summary
Java Buildpack shows steady progress with 420 commits since the last conference and updates to 228 dependency versions to keep JREs and Tomcat patched. It adds CentOS and Trusty stemcells, expanded auto-reconfiguration (including Spring Boot and Gradle), and a modular extension model that halves forked code. HTTP session replication stores sessions in Redis with zero‑touch binding via HTTP session replication to Redis, and buildpack packaging supports an offline buildpack (~200 MB) for air‑gapped deployments.
