This week I join an online session about the upcoming release of Jakarta EE 9 (release date is 20 November). It is very interesting as I understand the transition from Java EE to Jakarta EE will be done then.
My understanding is that Jakarta EE 9 don't have any new functionality compared with Java EE8.
Jakarta EE 10 will be that release with more functionality, I think it is planed to be released in Q3 2021.
But at this session I got the information that there will first be a Jakarta EE 9.1 release with support for Java 11.
Earlier in September I join the "Oracle Developer live-Java" session about the release of Java 15 (is a short-term release), nowadays there is a new release every 6 months. This is very good! Is is possible to watch the replays about Oracle Developer Live-Java,
Java 17 will be very interesting release because this release is a LTS release (with long time support). Today Java 11 is the latest LTS version.
Later in december there will be a Jakartaone livestream about Jakarta EE 9, I will surely join it!
I think now Java have a very bright future!
