The Payara Monthly Catch -September 2025
Welcome aboard the September issue of The Monthly Catch! With summer holidays wrapping up, the Java world is back […]
You may have seen that our Payara Forum has recieved an update. We’ve moved from Google Groups to a brand new location: https://forum.payara.fish/
Below you will find out more about why we made the new decision, what the Forum is for and how to use it!
We have decided on this new location as it provides a better user experience, with a clear layout, the ability to group discussion threads within categories, and no need to use email address.
Unlike Google Groups, our new Forum resembles a social media network or website comments rather than an email inbox, and therefore is more suited for discussion and threads. With clear new rules about what the Forum is and isn’t (see below) we’re hoping that the new Payara Forum will encourage Payara community collaboration, innovation and lots of shared enthusiasm surrounding our Payara Platform products.
At Payara, we are very active on GitHub and it serves a different purpose to our Forum.
When bugs are reported and enhancements are requested, we welcome votes to decide what is prioritised in our upcoming releases. All you have to do is visit ourGitHub open issues page and up-vote the issues you think should be looked at first by our development team.
GitHub is also where you can contribute to the Payara Platform with your code. Issue a pull request with suggested bug features and enhancements!

Our Payara Team are keen to engage with and help our community of users, and will be looking at the Forum regularly, answering questions and directing toresourcesthat may help.
However, the Forum is primarily for community discussion, so it may be that other users and Payara enthusiasts will provide an answer first – or perhaps even a better one, or new fix our engineers haven’t thought of yet!
If you find that direct and guaranteed communication with the Payara team is what you need, it may be that aPayara Enterprisesubscription is worth investigating. Benefits of our solution for mission-critical production systems include direct support from engineers and Hot Fixes – patched modules if an urgent solution is required.
Since launching earlier this month, our Forum is already being widely used and many productive discussions have been started. For example, Payara’sAlan Rothhelped out a user by directing them to a blog to help get closer to a production ready domain, and a usefulconversation was started around using Java Faces Servlet under the newJakarta EE namespace.
The forum is the place to be to improve your Jakarta EE and Payara skills, keep track of what’s new and engage with other who face the same day-to-day challenges and tasks that you do.
What are you waiting for – get started now!
