In the latest episode of the Payara Podcast, we talk to Lenny Primak. Lenny is an experienced software architect and developer - he’s been contributing to various open source projects for many years, including Apache, Jakarta EE and Payara.

Last month, in June 2024 we held the Virtual Payara Conference, and that’s where Lenny joined us for the Open Source contributors roundtable. We had a really interesting conversation then, but had limited time to discuss various aspects of his work on open source, so we thought it’d be best to give Lenny some more time to share his journey and his experience during the Payara Podcast so here we are - we hope you will enjoy listening to this episode !

As August is about to unfold, we take some time to dive into the depths of Payara's resource base to gather for you the best pearls from July on Java, Jakarta EE, cloud computing, application development and devops. Our talented team has compiled an array of invaluable contributions designed to enhance your projects, meaning this month's roundup is packed with insightful guides, tutorials, technical insights and expert advice that you won't want to miss.
