CNCF Live Webinar: Low Footprint Java Containers with GraalVM

Dan Vega discussed upcoming changes and improvements in Spring including Spring Boot 3, which will have support for JDK 17, Jakarta EE 9/10, ahead-of-time compilation, improved observability with Micrometer, and Project Loom's virtual threads. Spring Boot 3.1 additions were also highlighted such as Docker Compose integration and Spring Authorization Server 1.0. Spring Boot 3.2 will focus on embracing virtual threads from Project Loom to improve scalability of web applications.

The document summarizes a presentation given by Mark Myers of the London Developer Co-op at UKLUG 2012 in Cardiff, Wales about customizing IBM Connections applications. The presentation introduces Connections and its architecture, describes tools for customization including native web applications, and demonstrates connecting to databases, handling requests, and scheduling jobs. It also discusses integrating Connections with Domino applications and debugging tools.

The document discusses ways to improve Java applications using Oracle's GraalVM, including using GraalVM's native image tool to compile applications into native executables, using native build tools to compile applications ahead-of-time, and deploying statically-linked applications in lightweight container images. It then outlines a demo that shows building a native executable from a Spring Boot application using GraalVM, adding the executable to a container image, and automating the build process with GitHub Actions.

Java SE 7 provides performance benefits over Java SE 6 through new features like the G1 garbage collector and the fork/join framework, optimizations to the HotSpot JVM and class libraries, and continued improvements through updates. It is the recommended version for new deployments due to its maturity of over a year since general availability and certification by major vendors.

Starting with Java 11, WebStart is being removed from Java. Because even today several applications are built on top of this technology, it will be mission-critical for many companies to find a replacement for it. This session presents an overview of the features of WebStart and how they can be replaced. It includes samples of several open source and commercial tools that provide such features and might mean new and cool possibilities for WebStart-based applications.

The document provides information about deploying JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications using Oracle VM templates. It discusses how the template deployment process reduces installation time from weeks to hours compared to traditional installations. The template contains a preconfigured virtual machine with the operating system, database, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne components and updates. It also outlines the steps to deploy the templates which include downloading, preparing, deploying the templates, and post-deployment tasks. The templates provide a rapid and low-risk way to deploy JD Edwards EnterpriseOne in virtualized environments.

Building Large Java Projects Faster. Multicore javac and Makefile integration. The new build system for OpenJDK and sjavac.

This document discusses how Java can remain relevant in the future by evolving to meet new demands and competing technologies. It provides the results of several microbenchmarks comparing Java to other languages like Node, Swift, Go, Python and Ruby. The benchmarks show Java performing competitively in most cases. The document argues that Java's strengths like being type safe, garbage collected, and able to run on all platforms position it well for cloud, data analytics and machine learning workloads. It outlines IBM's plans to invest in Java and related open source projects to accelerate innovation and ensure Java remains the platform of choice.

Presented by Vaibhav Choudhary, Java Platforms Team, Oracle in Walmart languages meetup on 28th April in BLR. Java with all its recent changes are ready for Cloud and for Container. Let’s unfold the story: Performance Improvement Fast startup time Low memory overhead Respective to container boundaries, if any

What are the challenges to using Java for serverless functions and what features of the JDK and other tools are available to address them?

GSE Nordic 2015 CICS Java – Beauty and the Beast After giving sessions about Java in the past few years that tell system programmers they should do Java on IBM z Systems and that Java is just like every other language, this session tries to explain why Java is a bit different in operating and handling. We will compare COBOL/PLI/Assembler with Java and provide insight into how the Java technology works on z Systems. Come along if you want to find out the answers to questions such as: Why can't you phase in a Java program? What does the JIT compiler do and how does it work? What is the development process of Java applications? How do I debugging and logging in Java applications?

This presentation will take you on a journey to better understand this quiet, shy and unassuming member of the Oracle family and ask the question: Should you consider Glassfish for your Production environment? Presented at AUSOUG Perth 2013 Conference by Andrew Rosson from Lansen.
