Payara Monthly Catch: March 2023
Published on 31 Mar 2023
by Priya Khaira-HanksWelcome to our March selection of the best blogs, videos, podcasts and tutorials from the world of Java, Jakarta EE, cloud computing and open source.
The big news of the month is the release of JDK 20! This won't be supported by Payara Platform, as we only support LTS Java releases - readthis blog to find out why. HOWEVER, it is still very relevant for Payara Platform users, as many of the changes will make their way into the next LTS release in September, JDK 21. We provided in this monthly catch some of our picks of the best articles that explain what Project Loom and Amber changes you can look forward to enjoying in an LTS release by the end of the year.
Jakarta EE11 is targeted for the first quarter of 2024, six months after JDK 21. Our CEO and Founder Steve Millidgediscussed the improvement work in Jakarta EE 11, which brings in brand-new specifications for the first time - such as Jakarta Config and Jakarta Data - and will leverage the new capabilities of Java 21.
Finally, MicroProfile6 is now supported in both our Enterprise and Community products - and Jakarta EE 10 hits our Enterprise product, meaning you can use the latest enterprise Java frameworks with production-ready Payara Platform. Read morehere.
We also held and announced the winner and 2nd and 3rd places of our first ever Payara Hackathon! Congratulations to winner Vivek Ravikumar. 2nd and 3rd place go to Ricardo Ibarra and Jeroen Ninck Blok.
We hope you enjoy our pick of the very best from an exciting month in our Jakarta EE Community!
