Migration

An experience report on migrating an industrial-grade IDE to the Cloud using the Eclipse ecosystem

Rainer Poisel (logi.cals GmbH)

An increasing number of tool providers are considering to offer their rich-client tools as a service in the Cloud, but not too many got already started. New technologies and platforms, such as the language server protocol (LSP), the Monaco Editor, Eclipse Theia, Eclipse Che, and Eclipse Graphical Language Server Platform (GLSP) are key enablers for achieving this goal. In this talk, we want to share our experiences made in an early Cloud migration project of a real industrial tool using those technologies.

Migrating Beyond Java 8

Dalia Abo Sheasha (IBM)

Are your applications running on Java 8? Thinking about switching your application to run on Java 11 or Java 12 and wondering about where to start? Come to this session to learn about the most significant changes that went into Java 11 and 12 that will impact your application migration. Topics will include the removal of APIs (such as Java EE packages) and behavior changes resulting from moving an application from running on Java 8 to running on Java 11 and 12.

Pimp my RCP App : UX Benefits of a e4 Migration

Laurent CARON (Akuiteo)

Akuiteo is a french company that publishes Akuiteo ERP, a software management platform for services companies.

Our main front-end product is an Eclipse RCP-based application. This product was launched in 2007, and our last technical migration (from RCP 3.5 to RCP 3.7) occured in 2012.

After 5 years, it was time to enter in a new era by changing the engine and migrating to e4 !

I'll present the different steps, the doubts, the pitfalls and eventually the success !

Gradual Migration from Java EE to MicroProfile

Rudy De Busscher (Payara Services Limited)

The goal of MicroProfile.IO is to optimise Java EE for a micro-service architecture. It is based on some of the Java EE specifications and standardise a few technologies from the micro-services space.

However, some of the microprofile implementations are completely different 'servers', like the KumuluzEE server. So how can you migrate easily from your favorite Java EE server to a MicroProfile implementation?

Migrate early, migrate often! JDK release cadence strategies

Theresa Mammarella (IBM)

A Java release every 6 months? Awesome! But maybe you’re worried about upgrading and deprecation? Don’t be! This session highlights the tools and concrete strategies necessary for adapting to the new OpenJDK release cycle. Come learn from JVM developers how to prepare for continuous change without losing your mind.

Migrating from PDE to Bndtools in Practice

Amit Kumar Mondal (Deutsche Telekom AG)
Jochen Hiller (Deutsche Telekom AG)

QIVICON is an Eclipse SmartHome based solution from Deutsche Telekom AG. It utilises OSGi to provide a modular Java runtime.

Since the beginning, QIVICON leveraged Eclipse PDE with Maven & Eclipse Tycho as its build technology but over the time, the complexity increased. It became hard to get an overview and manage the runtime and build dependencies. Especially maintaining target configurations for IDE and CI/CD build, having different embedded gateways for installation increased complexity significantly.

If, when and how? - Strategies towards web-based tooling

Maximilian Koegel (EclipseSource)
Jonas Helming (EclipseSource)

There is currently a big hype surrounding web-based tooling . New projects and frameworks are popping up and existing projects get more traction both in- and outside the Eclipse ecosystem, e.g. Eclipse Che, Eclipse Theia, Visual Studio Code, Atom, Eclipse Drigible, and Eclipse Orion. While the dissemination of web-based tools in the real world is still relatively low, almost every tool project will eventually deal with the question of how to migrate to a web-based platform.
