Payara Services Celebrates the Release of Jakarta EE 9

As leading contributors to the Jakarta EE project, Payara excitedly welcomes Jakarta EE 9 - now officially released! 

Announced at today’s Jakarta One Livestream, the headline breaking change is the move from the package namespace javax to jakarta across the Jakarta EE 9 Platform, Web Profile specifications, and related TCKS. 

Through our involvement in the Eclipse Foundation Jakarta EE Working Group, we are proud to play a major role in shaping, improving and championing Jakarta EE 9. The specifications will be key to the evolution of cloud native technologies for Java, also central to Payara's mission. 

MicroProfile, Your Cloud-Native Companion for Enterprise Java

Writing microservices within Jakarta EE is technically possible, but you miss a few goodies for the distributed environment you are running in.

MicroProfile wants to optimize your Enterprise Java application by creating Java standards which link to some well known CloudNative standards like etcd for Configuration, OpenTracing and Jaeger for Distributed Tracing and Prometheus for Metrics.

In this talk, delivered by Payara's Rudy De Busscher at EclipseCon, he goes over some basic concepts of the MicroProfile specifications and show you through various demos how the integration with those tools can be done easily.

The Payara Monthly Catch from November 2020

The big news from this month was the General Availability release of Jakarta EE 9 on November 20th, moving to the jarkarta namespace once and for all. This will be followed by an official release at the Eclipse Foundation's JakartaOne Livestream on December 8th - at which our Founder Steve Millidge is a key speaker.

It's also been a month of exciting news for Payara as a business, as we've extended our partnership with Azul Systems and taken key steps towards beta testing of our exciting Payara Cloud project, all alongside our regular monthly platform release. We've also been excited to see Payara used as examples in Community materials such as Otávio Santana , Geovanny Mendoza, and Aristides Bravo's new Jakarta EE guide, in various learning materials and blogs, and in a Microsoft tutorial!

10 Strategies for Developing Reliable Jakarta EE Applications for the Cloud

What happens when an application designed for a small user base needs to be scaled up and moved to the cloud?

It needs to live in a distributed environment: responding to an appropriate number of concurrent user requests per second and ensuring users find the application reliable. 

Though Jakarta EE and Eclipse MicroProfile can help with reliable clustering, there is no standard API in Jakarta EE that defines how clustering should work currently. This might change in the future, but in the meantime, this gap must be filled by DevOps engineers.

In this blog, we will cover 10 technical strategies to deal with clustering challenges when developing Jakarta EE and MicroProfile for cloud environments.

The Payara Monthly Catch from October 2020

How To Bring Your Java Microservices To The Cloud

All companies are software companies, and businesses will always experience the challenge of keeping integrations between users and applications scalable, productive, fast, and of high quality. To combat this, cloud, microservices, and other modern solutions come up more and more in architectural decisions.

Here is the question: Is Java prepared to deal with these diverse concepts in a corporate environment?

Yes, and to demonstrate how Jakarta EE and Eclipse MicroProfile work very well and in the cloud, the Payara and Platform.sh will work together on this webinar. Watch and make your conclusions.

The Payara Monthly Catch for August 2020

 

I hope you enjoy this month's catch. You may notice I made an effort to try and search for content by authors we had not featured before (and are a little less known), as well as including a few of our prolific favourites. There was also a slight lean towards Kubernetes themed content this month as well.
