Today May 23rd marks the 29th birthday of the Java Platform. First debuting in in 1995, the platform has grown to become one of the most used technologies in the world. On this 29th occasion of its birthday, I got an AI chatbot to compose an ode for the Java Platform. So dear Java, here’s an ode to you on your birthday from myself and everyone at Payara!

In realms of code, where dreams take flight,
A language born, a beacon bright.
Java, your name, a programmer’s creed,
Twenty-nine years, a legacy indeed.
