HiJakarta EEandMicroProfilecommunity! It's time for the August Payara Monthly Catch. 

Java 21 is coming next month. That means - virtual threads! Project Panama! Sequenced collections! This month, we round up all the interesting articles about Java 21 and beyond, all in one place. See below for your reading list. We also have been working on applying features like Virtual Threads in a Jakarta EE context.

It's also the month we launched a free trial of our fully managed Jakarta EE cloud native application runtime, Payara Cloud. You can now try it out for free, with 15 days available to you as a trial. Check it outhere. 

In this new guide we look at how to improve cloud native, Jakarta EE application performance using the JCache.

JCache, or Java Caching API, is the standard cache API on the Java Platform. It is developed under 
Java Specification Request (JSR) 107. JCache, similar to other Java APIs, comprises a set of core 
interfaces organised under the javax.cache package. In this guide, we talk you through these interfaces and how you can get started with JCache, with code examples.

Payara Cloud is our fully-managed cloud native application runtime. 

Unlike building an application server deployment on a Cloud Infrastructure as a Service or on raw Kubernetes, Payara Cloud takes care of provisioning infrastructure, installation, configuration, deployment and scaling of your application. Any web application following the Jakarta Web Profile specification can be uploaded and it will run in a containerized Payara Micro instance.

It's time for the July Payara Monthly Catch. 

This month's pick includes:
