The Jakarta EE platform has finished moving into its new home at the Eclipse Foundation after a year of significant effort to contribute, build, and test the Java EE technologies in a new community.

An itkonekt session for building a MicroProfile / Java EE application from scratch. Metrics, OpenAPI, FaultTolerance, Configuration, multi-server deployments, ThinWARs, and even reactive (easter) eggs included:

In this tutorial, we will learn how to secure our services using MicroProfile JWT and Keycloak. Go to https://www.keycloak.org/downloads.html and download latest Standalone server distribution.

Red Hat has taken control of two popular versions of the open source Java implementation, so developers can continue to build apps after Oracle's support ends.

A new survey of IoT developers reveals that connectivity, performance, and standards are growing areas of concern as IoT projects hit production.

Read on to take a look at the YAML, Java, and terminal commands you need to get your microservices up and running with MicroProfile and Kubernetes.

The 2019 IoT Developer Survey Results are live. IoT developers are driving real commercial outcomes, survey results show two-thirds of respondents are working on IoT projects professionally. 38% of the users cited security as particularly challenging for IoT development, followed by connectivity, data collection and analysis, performance, privacy, and standards. See the full results here.

As Wayne Beaton wrote about in his blog Renaming Java EE Specifications for Jakarta EE, the process of renaming the Java EE specifications as a part of the path towards Jakarta EE 8 has started.

Jakarta EE’s official launch is here! Have you made the switch? In this article, Edwin Derks explores three of the most common reasons why some developers haven’t moved on over and explains why Jakarta EE is worth the effort.

Have you ever toiled with creating mock objects for unit tests? How about custom setup steps for integration tests? Ever had an issue in production because of differences in behavior between testing and production environments?

As Java EE moves into the Eclipse Foundation, it’s important to keep an eye on various milestones along the way. Today, Arjan Tijms of Payara explains how the transfer is going and explores some of the proposals for future EE releases.

Those of you following Jakarta EE probably know that the upcoming Jakarta EE 8 release will be functionally equivalent to Java EE 8. The reason for this is that we want to prove that the transfer from Oracle is complete and that we are able to produce the processes, specifications, test suites and a compatible implementation through the Eclipse Foundation.

Apache Kafka is a community-distributed streaming platform that has three key capabilities: publish and subscribe to streams of records, store streams of records in a fault-tolerant durable way, and then process streams as they occur. Apache Kafka has several success cases in the Java world. This post will cover how to benefit from this powerful tool in the Jakarta EE/MicroProfile universe.

2 days left! Participate in our 5th annual IoT Developer Survey, organized by the Eclipse IoT Working Group! This survey is intended to deliver valuable insight into programming languages, platforms, and infrastructure for building IoT solutions. As an IoT developer, we want to hear from you! Responses will be collected until Friday, March 8th.
