Cloud Native for Java (CN4J) Day at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe will be the first time the best and brightest minds from the Java ecosystem and the Kubernetes ecosystem come together at one event to collaborate and share their expertise.

Moving Forward With Jakarta EE 9

Thursday, January 16, 2020 - 12:06 by Mike Milinkovich

On behalf of the Jakarta EE Working Group, I am excited to announce the unanimous approval of the plan for Jakarta EE 9, with an anticipated mid-2020 release. Please note that the project team believes this timeline is aggressive, so think of this as a plan of intent with early estimate dates. The milestone dates will be reviewed and possibly adjusted at each release review.

Today we are launching our new Edge Native Working Group to help drive the industry platform for edge computing.

Re-Defining Cloud Development Tools

Tuesday, October 8, 2019 - 06:30 by Mike Milinkovich

The Eclipse community is seriously on a roll these days. Hot on the heels of the Eclipse Che 7 release, we just announced the Eclipse Cloud Development (ECD) Tools Working Group, a vendor-neutral, open source collaboration that will focus on the evolution of development tools for, and in, the cloud.

Eclipse Che 7 Enables Faster, Safer Development on Kubernetes

Tuesday, September 17, 2019 - 10:00 by Mike Milinkovich

A major version release within the Eclipse Foundation community always provides us a reason to celebrate, congratulate, and thank all those who participated and contributed to the process. The delivery today of Eclipse Che 7 is no exception. But Che 7’s arrival is more than great news for the Eclipse community, it’s also an industry game changer because it drastically reduces the learning and adoption curves of Kubernetes for enterprise application developers.

Welcome to the Future of Cloud Native Java

Tuesday, September 10, 2019 - 07:00 by Mike Milinkovich

Today, with the release of Jakarta EE 8, we’ve entered a new era in Java innovation.

Under an open, vendor-neutral process, a diverse community of the world’s leading Java organizations, hundreds of dedicated developers, and Eclipse Foundation staff have delivered the Jakarta EE 8 Full Platform, Web Profiles, and related TCKs, as well as Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 certified as a Jakarta EE 8 compatible implementation.

Industrial-Scale Collaboration for the Business Win

Monday, July 15, 2019 - 10:40 by Mike Milinkovich

Marc Andreessen once famously said, “Software is eating the world.” He was right, software gobbled up industry sectors as varied as financial services, automotive, mining, healthcare, and entertainment. Companies of all sizes have leveraged software to improve their business processes and adapt products to a digital economy. And then a funny thing happened: open source ate software.

Eclipse ioFog: Evolving Toward Native Kubernetes Orchestration at the Edge

Sunday, June 23, 2019 - 16:46 by Mike Milinkovich

With the proliferation of AI, autonomous vehicles, 5G, IoT, and other industrial use cases that require lightning-fast data processing, edge computing has emerged over the past few years as a way to address the limitations of existing cloud architectures to process information and deliver services at the “IoT edge”. Instead of backhauling data to the centralized cloud, edge computing brings computational power closer to data sources to support near real-time insights and local actions while reducing network bandwidth and storage requirements.

The Cloud Native Imperative — Results from the 2019 Jakarta EE Developer Survey

Friday, May 10, 2019 - 11:17 by Mike Milinkovich

The results of the 2019 Jakarta EE Developer Survey are out. Almost 1,800 Java developers from around the world have spoken. Taken together with the engagement and response to my recent posts on the future of Jakarta EE (see my latest blog here), the survey makes clear the developer community is focused on charting a new course for a cloud native future, beginning with delivering Jakarta EE 8.
