Jakarta EE Momentum Continues With Jakarta EE 9.1
The Jakarta EE Working Group has released the Jakarta EE 9.1 Platform and Web Profile specifications and related Technology Compatibility Kits (TCKs).
Jakarta EE 9.1 includes a number of updates and new options, and is compatible with Java SE 11. As a result, Java developers have more flexibility to mix and match technologies as needed to meet their unique application development and migration requirements. For example, they can:
- Develop and deploy Jakarta EE 9.1 applications on Java SE 11, the most current LTS release of Java SE, as well as Java SE 8
- Leverage Java SE 11 features that have been added since Java SE 8 in their Jakarta EE 9.1 applications
- Leverage new technologies that support Java SE 11 in their Jakarta EE 9.1 applications
- Migrate existing Jakarta EE 9 applications to Java SE 11 without changes
- Migrate existing Java EE and Jakarta EE 8 applications to Jakarta EE 9.1 using the same straightforward process available for migration to Jakarta EE 9
Compatibility certifications with Jakarta EE 9.1 are already well underway, with five products certified as compatible with the release:
- IBM’s Open Liberty
- Eclipse Glassfish
- Apache TomEE
- Red Hat’s Wildfly
- ManageCat’s ManageFish
