Java 15 & Jakarta EE9

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!
