Invited Talk: Thorntail - A Micro Implementation of Eclipse MicroProfile

What if there was a way you could take advantage of the latest microservice architectures by leveraging the developers and skills you already have?!? In this session we’ll show you how with Eclipse MicroProfile and Red Hat’s implementation Thorntail. We discuss all the cool features it allows you to easily use, such as OpenTracing, Metrics, and layout the current roadmap plans. Then we move onto a demo that showcases what’s possible with Eclipse MicroProfile, utilizing the existing specifications, built with Thorntail.

MicroProfile: OSGi was meant for this

Raymond Auge (Liferay Inc.)

The craze is fully on. The past couple of years have seem micro services grow from next _flava_ to fully consuming of the software industry. The Eclipse micorprofile.io project is tackling the issue putting common usage patterns together over a foundation of CDI. What better assembly driver is there than OSGi to put it all together. This talk will demonstrate building your own MicroProfile using OSGi and the OSGi enRoute packaging model.

Invited Talk: Distributed Tracing for MicroProfile Runtimes

Pavol Loffay (Red Hat, Inc.)

In this talk we will walk through MicroProfile-OpenTracing project and explain how it can improve observability in your cloud native Java deployments. At the beginning there will be an introduction to distributed tracing and then we will continue with the project specific features. We will also touch more advanced topics like tracing in (Istio) service mesh architectures, distributed context propagation and best practices when instrumenting your business logic. Last but not least we will talk about project roadmap and how to get involved.

Eclipse MicroProfile and Istio - a supplementary combination

Michael Hofmann

To develop a cloud ready application is only one side of a medal, the other side is the cloud environment hosting this application. As a software architect you have to make some decisions giving a consideration to your target runtime environment. Some aspects like configuration, fault tolerance, health checks, application metrics, request tracing and service discovery have a strong coupling with the cloud environment. Eclipse MicroProfile has a lot of specifications to make your Jakarta EE based application ready for the cloud.

MicroProfile and Jakarta EE -- What's Next?

Kevin Sutter (IBM)

MicroProfile is well established as a microservices development platform. It blazed the trail for the Jakarta EE movement. In it's short tenure, MicroProfile has introduced us to the Fault Tolerance, JWT Propagation, Metrics, Rest Client, Config, Health Check, OpenAPI, and OpenTracing programming models. But, what's next for these two key Eclipse projects? Will MicroProfile stay independent and continue to demonstrate it's fast-paced innovation? Or, will it be combined with Jakarta EE, which is also promising a faster development cycle than the previous Java EE platform?

MicroProfile: It's All Fun and Games

Andrew Guibert (IBM)

Experience MicroProfile and Java EE firsthand with Liberty Bikes: the four player, elimination game built using the latest technologies of Java EE 8 and Microprofile 1.3. You've seen the Java EE charts. You've seen the lists of technologies. You've probably even heard how you can write 12-factor apps using these technologies. Come to this session to see the actual code and how to leverage those technologies in a simple, practical manner.

From Java EE to Jakarta EE: a user perspective

Jean-François James (Worldline)

During 20 years, we have been accustomed to Java EE (previously J2EE) managed by the Java Community Process. Not all of us were fully happy with this situation: we have often been frustrated by its slow process and its sometimes bloated specifications. But at least, it was considered as a long-term standard. In less than 6 months, everything has changed and now, we have Jakarta EE managed by the Eclipse Foundation. Who could have imagined such a change in a short period of time?

Invited Talk: Developing cloud-native microservices using project Helidon

Dmitry Kornilov (Oracle)

Tomas Langer (Oracle)

Come learn about developing microservices using Helidon. Helidon is an open source project led by Oracle. It's a collection of Java libraries for building microservices. In this session we will talk about two programming models supported by Helidon: lightweight, functional model using JDK as runtime for those wanting less “magic” and Microprofile for those wanting inversion of control and familiar Java EE APIs. We will show how to quickly create your first Helidon application which uses both programming models.
