Today at the DevNation conference in San Francisco, Payara’s Mike Croft appeared onstage during the Keynote, joined by Mark Little from Red Hat, Alasdair Nottingham from IBM, Theresa Nguyen from Tomitribe and Martijn Verburg from the London Java User Group to announce a new community collaboration called MicroProfile. 

The goal of the MicroProfile initiative is to make it easier for developers to use familiar Java EE technologies and APIs for building microservice applications.

In this interview for JAXenter.com , Steve Millidge, the Founder of Payara and speaker at JAX 2016, talks about how to use CDI annotations in your Java EE applications, when to use which annotations, and what is automagically happening under the covers.

Steve also tells us exactly how heavyweight Java EE really is, explaining the repercussions and solutions.
