Java is a popular framework that’s been a foundation for many enterprise applications for over 20 years. But lately, those enterprises have run into trouble: moving their applications to the cloud. This migration promises more security, reliability, and easier scaling, but it can be daunting with an older framework like Java. The host, @robertdouglass of Platform.sh, asks,
“With all these older versions of applications floating around in this huge plethora of runtimes and variants, does that make it harder for organizations to “lift and shift”, or to adopt cloud native philosophies?”
Speakers from Red Hat, the Eclipse Foundation, and Paerra address the Java toolbox that can help ease this transition.
What should hype up developers about working with Jakarta EE? Ivar Grimstad of the Eclipse Foundation says, “If you want to be future-proof and to be productive right away, you can write less code, less configuration, and less boilerplate to get up and running using Jakarta EE than any other framework.”
Launching Java-built applications to the cloud can be difficult, but developers can minimize bumps by putting tools like Jlink, Graal.vm, Transformer, and Jakarta EE to work. Robert Douglass sums it up: “Stability, backwards compatibility, safety, and boringness are the hallmarks of the Java ecosystem these days, and they are really attractive features when the very act of software development is so fraught with risk.”
Launch Java applications from these Platform.sh templates today.
Platform.sh is a robust, reliable hosting platform that gives development teams the tools to build and scale applications efficiently. Whether you run one or one thousand websites, you can focus on creating features and functionality with your favorite tech stack and leave managing infrastructure and processes to us.
