On Tuesday this week I presented The Past, Present, and Future of Enterprise Java at the Valencia JUG. In addition to my talk, we also had a short presentation from Tanja about how to contribute to Jakarta EE as well as a panel of Eclipse Foundation colleagues presenting what we do in various working groups of Eclipse Foundation.


I have done this talk quite a few times now, but I am keeping it current by adding and removing from it every time I present it. This time, I added a demo of OmniAI. I discovered the library when the creator (Bauke Scholtz) posted about it on the Jakarta EE general slack channel. It is an extremely simplistic approach to integrate with any AI provider. And the good thing is that it supports CDI out of the box. A serious alternative to LangChain4J-cdi.
