Welcome to our monthly roundup of the best content in the Java, Jakarta EE, DevOps, cloud computing, open source and enterprise software space!

Payara Platform Community 6.2022.1 will be released very soon (scheduled for next week!)

It is the first stable release of the Payara 6 Community stream and will be the updated, current version of Payara Platform Community. 

September was a BIG month in Java. 

Jakarta EE 10 came out - alongside the first compatible products certified against the Jakarta EE 10 platform. Payara 6 Community was one of them!

Also this month = one of the biggest Java conferences in the community, JConfDev, took place in Chicago; and we hosted our webinar with Azul, where we examined AOT vs JIT compilation (video to come). 

We also saw the GA of Java 19! Phew...

Jakarta EE 10 launches today! At Payara, we are celebrating this major next step for enterprise Java, and support Jakarta EE 10 with Payara 6 Community.

Payara Engineering have recently released Payara Server Community 6 Alpha 3 and Payara Server Community 6 Alpha 4 as major milestones on the road to full Jakarta EE 10 support.

In this blog, we will explore what these releases can do and how you can use them to help in your migration to Payara 6 and Jakarta EE 10.

Jakarta EE 10 will be released on September 22! It's almost here...

While the previous releases of Jakarta EE have been focussed on the much-feared namespace change and updating everything with support for Java 11, this is the first major release of Jakarta EE to start introducing new features for developers to use. I’ll cover some of them here.

August is typically a quiet month, and whilst this is the case in terms of industry announcements, there have been incredible learning resources and general Java articles created. Here, we have rounded up some of the best of them, covering DevOps, cloud computing, Java, Jakarta EE, MicroProfile and open source.

Every month, in our Payara Monthly Catch, we curate the best content for our audience. 

As our new image illustrates, we find you the 'treasure' from the world of DevOps, Jakarta EE, open source, cloud and MicroProfile. 

Payara Enterprise is an alternative to WildFly, JBoss EAP, WebSphere and more. 

With Payara Enterprise, you have everything offered by Payara Community - regular releases, a global community of 80,000 active users, cutting edge Jakarta EE technology - with the added benefits of support from our engineers, special features like a tool for upgrading and a 10-year software lifecycle. 

Java programming language can be enhanced with specifications. An specification is a baseline platform definition - a framework - to guide concrete implementations. 

One of these specifications is called MicroProfile. But what is MicroProfile specification, what is it used for and why might you need it? 

This blog explains all.
