GraalVM Java Compilers Join OpenJDK in 2023, Align with OpenJDK Releases and Processes

The Community Editions of the GraalVM JIT and Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compilers will move to OpenJDK in 2023. They will align with OpenJDK releases and processes. Existing releases, GraalVM Enterprise Edition, and other GraalVM projects will not. GraalVM 22.3 provides experimental support for JDK 19 and improves observability. Project Leyden will standardize Java AOT compilation.

Why DevOps Governance is Crucial to Enable Developer Velocity

The application environment should be managed centrally by the DevOps team. This allows them to better track modifications and changes which would then be swift and transparent to developer teams.

Article Series: Native Compilation Boosts Java

Java dominates enterprise applications. But in the cloud, Java is more expensive than some competitors. Native compilation makes Java in the cloud cheaper. It raises many questions for all Java users: How does native Java change development? When should we switch to native Java? When should we not? And what framework should we use for native Java? This series provides answers to these questions.

Cloud Native Java with the Micronaut Framework

The Micronaut framework provides a solid foundation for building Cloud Native Java microservices. It reduces the use of Java reflection, runtime proxy generation, and dynamic classloading. Tight integration with GraalVM Ahead-of-Time Compilation (AOT) has seen the usage of the Micronaut framework grow. Active compilation-time checking increases type safety and improves developer productivity.

Article Series: Building Microservices in Java

This article series will explore the state-of-the-art in building microservice-based architectures using the Java language. Alongside popular stalwarts, such as Spring Boot and Dropwizard, newer frameworks, such as Quarkus, Micronaut and Helidon, have been gaining momentum. These frameworks emerged after MicroProfile was introduced to the Java community in 2016.

Virtual Panel: the MicroProfile Influence on Microservices Frameworks

In mid-2016, the MicroProfile initiative was created as a collaboration of vendors to deliver microservices for enterprise Java. InfoQ recently asked the opinion of expert practitioners on how MicroProfile has influenced how developers today are building microservices-based applications, the emergence of new microservices frameworks and reverting back to monolith-based applications development.

Velocity and Better Metrics: Q&A with Doc Norton

Velocity is not good for predictions or diagnostics, argued Doc Norton at Experience Agile 2019. It's a lagging indicator of a complex system which is too volatile to know what our future performance will be; it isn’t stable enough to be used reliably. We can use Monte Carlo simulation for forecasting, and cumulative flow diagrams to track work, see changes in scope, and spot bottlenecks.

Q&A and Book Review of Software Development Metrics

The book Software Development Metrics by Dave Nicolette explores how to use metrics to track and guide software development. It explains how different development approaches and process models, like traditional waterfall-based or iterative agile software development, affect the choice and usage of metrics. It describes metrics that can be used for steering work and for managing improvement.

Introduction to Interface-Driven Development Using Swagger and Scalatra

Since it began life a little over three years ago, the Scalatra web micro-framework has evolved into a lightweight but full-featured MVC framework with a lively community behind it. Scalatra started out as a port of Ruby's Sinatra to the Scala language. Since then the two systems have evolved independently, with Scalatra gaining capabilities such as an Atmosphere integration and Akka support.
