3/25 - Extend Your Existing APIs for Agentic Workflows with Spring HATEAOS In this session we will compare MCP and hypermedia head to head and show why the strongest agent architectures combine both MCP to expose capabilities, and hypermedia to guide and constrain agent behavior—unlocking existing APIs for AI at enterprise scale.

Existing APIs + #AI Agents = Challenge? Don't rewrite your enterprise REST #APIs for agentic workflows! Join Adib Saikali on 3/25 to learn how #HATEOAS complements MCP to safely guide and constrain AI agent behavior. Future-proof your API investments!

How Spring Boot Really Works (From a Core Engineer) - Moritz Halbritter | The Marco Show YouTube video by IntelliJ IDEA, a JetBrains IDE

I recorded an episode of the Marco Show with Marco Behler from JetBrains. It was an absolute pleasure, thanks for having me. We talked about a lot: how I ended up on the Spring team, Project Leyden, GraalVM, AI, and so much more. Also available as a podcast.
