Jakarta EE 11, scheduled for a GA release in 1H2024, will introduce new specifications, provide updated specifications, and set the baseline to Java 21, the latest LTS release.
This presentation will provide a brief history of JavaEE/Jakarta EE and a review of new and updated specifications with code examples.

Java has legs, and the story seemingly never ends. In this talk James Governor will consider and analyze the ongoing strength of the Java ecosystem, with references to newer use cases such as cloud functions and even edge computing. Frameworks continue to drive programming language adoption, and there’s plenty of innovation there in Java. Meanwhile the container revolution is also driving Java modernisation efforts.
