JDD was one of my first international conferences I spoke at when I started my conference speaker journey. I presented here in 2013 and 2014 before returning this year. This was the 19th edition of JDD, so the conference is definitely among the long running ones. With a little over 600 attendees it is a decently sized event located in beautiful Kraków.
I presented The Past, Present, and Future of Enterprise Java to an enthusiastic crowd. It has proven to be popular presentation over an over again and always triggers good discussions afterwards.
I only had one day at JDD this year, but it was a great one. It started with attending Ed Burns‘ talk about App Modernization more or less directly after I arrived from the airport. Before my talk, I also popped in to Heinz Kabutz‘s talk about Thread Safe Programming. After my talk, I also watched parts of Luqman Saeed‘s talk about Modern Java Security.
