The JakartaOne Livestream is a huge event in the Jakarta EE and MicroProfile calendar. Organised by the Eclipse Foundation, it is a one-day virtual conference for developers and technical business leaders.

It brings insight into the current state and future of Jakarta EE and related technologies focused on developing cloud-native Java applications. 

The Payara Platform contains many products and some you may not have heard of! For example, have you heard of Payara Embedded Full Profile or Payara Embedded Web Profile?

Welcome to the first Monthly Catch of 2022 - looking back at the last month of 2021! We celebrate the most useful articles, videos, tips and tricks from our community in December - as well as round-up where you can find Payarans and the Payara Platform outside of our channels.

Payara Platform is an open source middleware platform that supports Jakarta EE (formerly Java EE) applications in ANY environment: on premise, in the cloud, or hybrid. 

It is a solution to GlassFish problems such as lack of supported Docker images and automation assistance, no internal monitoring system and an absence of modern security standards and critical server event alerts and notfiers. It is also an alternative to Oracle Weblogic, Wildfly, JBoss EAP, WebSphere, OpenLiberty and more. 

Our previous Getting Started guide had not been updated with improvements to Payara Platform, such as our hide password with password aliases feature - and did not contain comprehensive guides to integration with other technologies.

We are launching a new video series: Quick Fire Java with Payara! The first episode sees Payara Product Manager, Rudy De Busscher, discuss "Hype-Driven Development"; software investments based on "buzz" around a trend or product, rather than whether it actually works for your specific use case. 

As the year draws to a close, we'd like to thank some of the contributors who have played a part in the development of the Payara platform. 

We are an open source business at heart and therefore invite passionate individuals to submit pull requests on GitHub and shape the future of our products. 

The December 2021 Payara Platform release is here!  Payara Platform Enterprise 5.34.0 includes 7 improvements, 1 security fix, 8 bug fixes, and 1 component upgrade. The Payara Platform Community 5.2021.10 release offers 6 improvements, 1 security fix, 7 bug fixes, and 2 component upgrades. 

You can download Payara Platform Community 5.2021.10 here and request Payara Platform Enterprise 5.34.0 here.
