Interview with Spring team members Stéphane Nicoll & Brian Clozel
summary
Spring 5 ships a reactive stack with Spring WebFlux built on Project Reactor that targets streaming, high‑latency and cloud scenarios and coexists with Spring MVC. It adds a new nonblocking HTTP client WebClient (meant to replace many RestTemplate use cases), supports testing the web layer without starting the server, offers functional programmatic routing/controllers, and adds Kotlin-friendly APIs so reactive apps, traditional MVC apps, and mixed setups can be built and tested efficiently.
