The 11th release of Jakarta EE, the open-source successor to Java EE whose advancement is led by the Eclipse Foundation, is still undergoing development. Scheduled for release later in 2024, Jakarta EE 11 will introduce a range of enhancements and new functionalities aimed at improving Java enterprise application development. Let’s take a quick look at what to expect. 

In the latest episode of the Payara Podcast, we talk to Lenny Primak. Lenny is an experienced software architect and developer - he’s been contributing to various open source projects for many years, including Apache, Jakarta EE and Payara.

Last month, in June 2024 we held the Virtual Payara Conference, and that’s where Lenny joined us for the Open Source contributors roundtable. We had a really interesting conversation then, but had limited time to discuss various aspects of his work on open source, so we thought it’d be best to give Lenny some more time to share his journey and his experience during the Payara Podcast so here we are - we hope you will enjoy listening to this episode !

Welcome to another Nugget Friday! Today, we’re excited to share some insights into a recent development in the Java ecosystem that promises to enhance the way we process data with streams, exploring how it can make your stream processing more flexible, efficient and expressive. 

As August is about to unfold, we take some time to dive into the depths of Payara's resource base to gather for you the best pearls from July on Java, Jakarta EE, cloud computing, application development and devops. Our talented team has compiled an array of invaluable contributions designed to enhance your projects, meaning this month's roundup is packed with insightful guides, tutorials, technical insights and expert advice that you won't want to miss. 

With business running around the clock, customers and staff expect uninterrupted access to key software applications, making uptime essential to deliver optimum user experience. By implementing strategies aimed at keeping applications online, operational and responsive, companies can enhance their profitability, profile and overall competitiveness in the marketplace.

We interviewed our experts Luqman Saeed, Fabio Turizo and Patrik Duditš to help you with a few key tips on how to develop applications with high availability, consistency and reliability.

As Java developers, we’ve long grappled with the constraints of constructor logic and initialization.  In the past, if you needed to perform any operations before invoking the superclass constructor (via super()) in any class, you were often forced to rely on helper methods or extra constructors. This mostly ended up with cluttered, hard to read code as you needed to duplicate constructors or find workarounds. Let's look at how to address this in today's Nugget Friday!

One of the biggest challenges when developing applications for the web is understanding how they need to be fine-tuned when releasing them into a production environment. This is no exception for Jakarta EE applications deployed on a Payara Server installation.  

In an increasingly interconnected and digital world, it is no surprise that there has been a steady rise in the number and cost of security breaches over the last few years. To maximize the robustness and resilience of your applications and prevent any vulnerability from being exploited, it's important for companies to keep everything around their software up to date.

When it comes to application servers, it means using a modern, fully supported solution or upgrading to one quickly. With Java EE-based server runtime environments being outdated legacy software and lacking support, it is essential to migrate applications relying on these to favor an alternative, such as Jakarta EE, to safeguard your applications and data.
