The first Payara Platform release in 2020 is out. Highlighted updates include new End-to-End data encryption and the extension of the Monitoring Console. The release includes 31 bug fixes, 5 new features, 12 improvements and 21 component upgrades!

Check out the release notes here.

The first release of the Payara Platform in 2020 syncs the Stability and Community streams.  For those not in the know, the Community stream is what we call our quarterly public releases, and the Stability stream is what we call our monthly bug fix-only releases for those with the supported version of Payara Platform Enterprise, (see here for more info on the release streams).

Encryption of the data stored within the data grid of Hazelcast (the technology underpinning our deployment groups and clustering in Payara Platform 5) has until now required a Hazelcast Enterprise subscription (see Payara Scales). While this remains an option for those who would like the additional features it provides (such as WAN replication), we’ve begun introducing this particular feature into Payara Server itself to provide it to you without needing an additional subscription.

In Payara Platform 5.194 we introduced the monitoring console. The upcoming 5.201 release now offers numerous improvements and additions. We continued to followed our vision of a monitoring tool that users can configure to their needs, ranging from new tools such as watches and alerts, to new colour themes and settings users can tweak to match their individual preferences.

As you may have heard, Payara Platform 5.194 is now released! And with a boatload of new features, improvements and bug fixes, it also marks JDK 11 support coming out of tech preview! With much excitement from users, JDK 11 support has been in technical preview since 5.192.

Great news for everyone! Today we released a new version of the Payara Platform (5.194) with many exciting new features including production-ready JDK 11 support, Monitoring Console and MicroProfile 3.2 support. This release introduces 50 bug fixes, 13 new features, 20 improvements and 4 component upgrades.

Payara Platform has implemented MicroProfile OpenTracing with its own tracer that can be sent to other sources via the notification service. But maybe you don't want to use Payara's Tracer, and instead want to use a different one - now you can, starting from Payara Platform 5.194 onwards.

We are happy to announce that from the Payara Platform 5.194 release onwards Payara Server ships with a built-in monitoring console that allows a visual peek under the hood of the server.

With the release of Payara Platform 5.194 (coming in December), Payara will officially be MicroProfile (MP) 3.2 compatible. But what's the big deal about this? In this blog, we'll be taking a look at the benefits and features of the upgrade and why you'll want to make use of it.
