Attention Spring users! <a href="https://astra.datastax.com/register?utm_source=devplay&amp;utm_medium=newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=20201003">DataStax Astra</a> offers Spring Boot users a fluent REST API to consume Cassandra data. In this new <a href="https://github.com/DataStax-Examples/astradb-spring-rest">Example of the Week</a>, we show you how to use your Astra database’s REST API with Spring Boot’s <a href="https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/springframework/web/client/RestTemplate.html">RestTemplate</a>. Stay tuned for future examples that use GraphQL and schemaless, document-style JSON APIs! Getting started is fast and easy; Astra accounts require no credit card and are free up to 5GB.&nbsp;
