Nugget Friday - Streamlining Configuration with MicroProfile Config

Managing configurations in enterprise Java application can often feel like a daunting task. As applications scale, configuration values become scattered across multiple files, formats, and environments—creating complexity and increasing the risk of errors. From juggling different settings for development, testing and production environments to dealing with the frustration of restarting applications for minor config changes, these challenges slow down development and impact productivity.

But what if there was a better way to manage configurations that are flexible, dynamic and type-safe?  This Nugget Friday, we discuss MicroProfile Config—a powerful, standards-based solution designed to simplify configuration management for Java EE and Jakarta EE applications.

Shaping Java's Future: Join the Jakarta EE Interest Group

The Java Platform is an essential technology platform for modern applications. The Jakarta EE collection of specifications, crafted on Java SE, is arguably the most widely used (directly and indirectly) development platform for enterprise applications on the Java Platform. Over the last couple of years, Jakarta EE has started evolving much faster to meet the rapidly changing needs of enterprises. However, this evolution could be improved to better address the future needs of the industry. This is why the Eclipse Foundation, the home of the Jakarta EE Platform, has introduced the Jakarta EE Future Directions Interest Group.

Drive Application Security By Leaving Legacy Solutions

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 With Java EE-based server runtime environments being outdated legacy software and lacking support, it is essential to migrate applications relying on these to favor an alternative, such as Jakarta EE, to safeguard your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.
