Although the San Francisco conference does not begin until October
25, Oracle already has published session descriptions for the event,
which reveal topics including Java EE, Docker, and the Internet of
things.
In a session entitled "Java EE 8 Work in Progress," Oracle
technical staff member Linda Demichiel will present an overview of
Oracle's plans for Java EE 8. Among these plans are enhanced support for
HTML5 applications and Web tier features, including server-sent events;
JSON enhancements; support for HTTP/2 in Servlet 4.0; and updates to
the WebSocket API. Java EE 8 also will get improvements to CDI (Contexts
and Dependency Injection) alignment, enhancements to security APIs, and
continued support for portable cloud applications. The presentation
will cover how the platform leverages Java SE 8 as well.
Another session will discuss the opportunities Java EE 8
faces. "With the advent of Java 8 features such as lambdas and method
references, logic is mobile and Java EE has the opportunity to reinvent
itself, this time from the declarative to the programmatic." Attendees
can hear about secure Java EE architecture and programming in another
presentation, honing in on writing secure code and constructing secure
systems. Additionally, JavaOne features a session led by Red Hat's Arun
Gupta, director of technical marketing and developer advocacy, on
refactoring Java EE applications with microservices and containers.
Docker, the popular software container technology,
is featured in a discussion on running a Java app in five Docker clouds
in 50 minutes. The session will show how a distributed Java-based
application can work with the five most important Docker hosting
providers. There is also a session on building Jersey RESTful services
or WebSocket applications with Docker.
Also getting an airing at JavaOne are languages besides Java, including
Scala,
Kotlin, and
DukeScript, which purports to put Java into JavaScript
and is used for building cross-platform mobile, desktop, and Web
applications. Attendees can find out how to scale to 1 million
concurrent users on the JVM in a presentation by Livefvr, which built a
platform powering real-time comments and social media for major Web
sites.
Finally, the Internet of things will get a nod at JavaOne.
Project Kona,
providing Java networking technologies for the IoT will be covered, as
will end-to-end IoT solutions leveraging Java and Eclipse technology.
