A key Java survey came out this month – theAzul State of Java Survey and Report. With 2000 respondents, it was interesting to learn that Java 11 was the most popular JDK version, and that 72% were using non-Oracle solutions. We were also pleased that 19% of respondents reported Payara as their application server of choice, beating GlassFish, TomEE & WildFly!
