OpenLogic Spring LTS

You can use OpenLogic’s Spring Long-Term Support (LTS) offering to maintain secure, stable Spring Framework and Spring Boot applications after community support ends.

Supported components

Spring Framework is a modular platform for building enterprise-grade Java applications. It simplifies development with consistent programming models and abstractions for data access, transactions, web, and security.

Spring Boot builds on Spring Framework and offers:

  • Auto-configuration: Automatically configures the application context based on dependencies

  • Embedded servers: Includes Tomcat, Jetty, or Undertow, so you don’t need to set up a separate web server

  • Opinionated defaults: Provides production-ready defaults to simplify deployment

  • Actuator endpoints: Enables health checks, metrics, and monitoring out of the box

Service features

With the EOL of the community-maintained Spring, OpenLogic took private ownership of the last community-maintained releases: Framework 5.3.39 & Boot 2.7.18.

OpenLogic then set up this release under a version control system and CI/CD configuration to build, secure, and test new internally developed updates and patches of post-EOL Spring.

OpenLogic’s Spring Long-Term Support provides internally maintained versions of post-EOL Spring. It includes the Framework & Boot for core modules receiving patches for medium and high-severity vulnerabilities.

The newly patched, built, and tested versions of Spring are made available to customers in a private repository.

For support needs on non-core modules, contact your OpenLogic Account Executive."

You can use Spring to build:

  • Microservices and RESTful APIs

  • Enterprise-grade web applications

  • Event-driven and data-driven services

  • Cloud-native Java workloads

Intended audience

Spring LTS is designed for teams responsible for building, deploying, and maintaining Spring-based applications:

  • System administrators and DevOps engineers who manage Spring environments

  • Java developers working with Spring Framework or Spring Boot

  • Security and operations teams focused on compliance and long-term stability

If you're supporting legacy Spring applications or need to extend their lifecycle securely, Spring LTS is for you.
