Agile Java Adventures: European Tour Highlights

by Ivar Grimstad: agilejava.eu

Welcome to issue number two hundred and fifty-three of Hashtag Jakarta EE! I had six days at home in October. November will give me thirteen days at home, and no long-haul flights planned. But there will still be quite a bit of traveling around Europe. On the first trip, I will start with DevCon in Bucharest, followed by SFSCon in Bolzano, and top it off with JUG Milano and JUG Torino.

Upcoming Events in Europe

The week after the Italian tour, I will speak at the JUGs in Prague and Brno, which will be my first time visiting Czechia. I will then go to Portugal to speak at my final in-person conference of 2024 at Porto Tech Hub.

Jakarta EE Updates

The Jakarta EE 11 Core Profile API is ready and staged in the Jakarta EE Staging Repository. The specification document is ready, and there are two compatible implementations that have filed CCRs (Compatible Certification Requests). This means that as soon as the i’s have been dotted and t’s have been crossed, Jakarta EE 11 Core Profile will start its release review.

For the Jakarta EE 11 Platform and Jakarta EE 11 Web Profile specifications, the plan is to have the release sometime around JakartaOne Livestream on December 3.

JCP Executive Committee Elections

Exploring Tokyo

It’s been five years since I last was in Tokyo, so it was about time to be back. Last time, I was there for the JCP EE Face-to-Face meeting as well as JJUG CCC 2019 Spring where I presented the Jakarta MVC specification. This time, at JJUG CCC 2024 Fall, I gave an overview of Jakarta EE 11. I also added a demo of how to easily integrate AI in a Jakarta EE application using Langchain4j and CDI.

Even with 30 million inhabitants, you can still find some quiet places in Tokyo. I had a wonderful morning run in the area around my hotel through small alleys, along rivers and in parks. Tokyo is really a collection of cities and villages all connected together with an impressive network of trains, subways, metros, and buses.
