Jakarta 9.1 & Jakarta 10

Things moving faster and faster i Java nowadays. Soon we will get Jakarta EE 9.1 (Q2-2021) with support for Java 11 (latest LTS release). 

Later next year Jakarta EE 10 plan to be released about Q2-2022. Read more about this in this excellent article Java for the enterprise: What to expect in Jakarta EE 10 by Arjan Tijms.

In standard Java is also moving on, Java 16 is already released and Java 17 will be next long-term support (LTS) release, planed for Q3-202.

What about products support för Jakarta EE 9, of course it take time for products to support new releases but anyway we already have these compatible products för Jakarta EE 9.

Celebrate the release of Jakarta EE 9

Today I am celebrate the release of Jakarta EE 9! What a great day! wow!

There is also a Jakartaone livestream event about Jakarta EE today, join here !

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!
