Java EE 7 is here and the horizons for Java EE 8 are emerging. In order to solidly kick start Java EE 8, the GlassFish team conducted a series of community surveys. This session shares the content, results and analysis of these surveys. We will also share the detailed progress of Java EE 8 technologies already underway. The goal is to foster interest, discussion and participation around Java EE 8.
Some of the items covered include HTTP 2, Server-Sent Events (SSE), JSON binding, JCache, CDI/EJB alignment, cloud, PaaS, multitenancy/SaaS, JMS 2.1, JAX-RS 2.1, CDI 2, security simplification, REST management/monitoring, an action-oriented Web framework and much, much more.
