The Payara Monthly Catch - July 2025

Your Round-Up of the Latest Java & Jakarta EE News.

Welcome aboard the July issue of The Monthly Catch. As always, we’re bringing you the latest updates, product news and expert resources from across the Payara ecosystem.

This month, we’re spotlighting exciting product launches like Payara Qube, a new strategic partnership with Azul and the official release of Jakarta EE 11. You’ll also find fresh blogs, guides and insights on everything from AI in Java to cloud-native deployments and DevOps productivity.

Multi-stage Docker Builds for Efficient Jakarta EE Deployments with Payara

Enterprise Jakarta EE applications require extensive tooling during development - Maven for dependency management, full JDKs for compilation, and various build utilities. However, production environments need only the compiled application and runtime server like Payara Server or Payara Micro. Multi-stage Docker builds bridge this gap by separating build and runtime concerns, producing dramatically smaller and more secure container images for Payara deployments.

JBoss Alternatives: Best Options to Consider 

Choosing the right application server is critical for the success of enterprise-grade applications. While Red Hat’s JBoss is a commonly implemented solution, organizations may want to explore alternatives to their current applications servers and runtimes. Sure, migrations can be intimidating, but if JBoss is no longer a perfect fit for a specific application, a move can help meet specific requirements, such as cutting licensing costs or adopting cloud-native approaches, as well as unlock new opportunities or capabilities.  

If you're here, chances are you’re considering your options. In this blog, we’ll discuss what JBoss offers, why businesses look for alternatives as well as what key contenders to look for when exploring alternatives.
