I could see the writing on the wall with this.

On that note, I'm already looking at migrating my codebase off of Spring. Just testing the waters with Quarkus, Helidon, Micronaut, Pekko, Vert.x, and plain Jakarta EE right now.

Red Hat effectively killed their JBoss/Middleware team and the rest of it moved to IBM https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/evolving-our-middleware-strat... Quarkus and other tools were pushed to CommonHaus/Apache. I believe Vert.X was also mostly developer by RH team, although moved to Eclispe Foundation a decade ago.

Oracle also ended up somehow sponsoring 2 frameworks: Helidon & Micronaut.

I'd bet Spring is still the safest choice next to Jakarta EE standards that all are built on top of nowadays.

Yeah my old colleagues who work on Kroxylicious are now IBM. I keep asking them if they're wearing a blue tie to the office yet, they still don't think it's funny.

I still see Gavin working on JEE.

I quite like Micronaut, especially the ability to use its compile time DI as a standalone library in a non-Micronaut app.

Quarkus is pretty similar, but is built on top of Vert.x so a lot of the fun of Vert.x (don't block the event loop!) is still present. It also does compile time DI.

Are there any indications or just a feel?

Company where I work had huge risk audit.

The second highest risk is using USA based cloud with 66/100.

The first one was using Spring Boot everywhere 77/100. Till the end of 2025 we need to have migration path to something else with 2 PoCs done.
