There are 2 major changes happening in the Java EE world that Payara is heavily involved in: MicroProfile – an industry collaboration to define microservices APIs on top of a subset of Java EE; and EE4J – the migration of Java EE from the JCP to the Eclipse Foundation. Also, since Payara 5 has been released, it has brought new and exciting capabilities, and the community versions of Payara Server & Payara Micro have switched from 4 to 5.
In this webinar presented on the 1st of March 2018, Steve Millidge (Payara Founder) and Mike Croft (Payara Head of Support) give an update on MicroProfile and EE4J, explaining the initiatives’ roadmaps, aims and objectives, and show code samples on how to use MicroProfile with Payara Server. They explained the Payara Server 2018 Roadmap and what the switch from Payara Server 4 to 5 means for Payara users.
