How to create beautiful cloud-native landscapes? Full service offering by a Gardener Project and Garden Linux

Cloud computing with Kubernetes has evolved to a widely accepted de-facto standard without vendor lock-in for creating scalable and flexible applications for critical business systems of record. Project “Gardener” is a production proven open-source Kubernetes-as-a-Service solution. SAP, as well as a growing number of community members are using project “Gardener” to fully automate and operate a global, multi-cloud, and hybrid Kubernetes service. It often serves as a fundamental gateway platform for important cloud services.

Exploring Stateful Microservices in the Cloud Native World

Mary Grygleski (IBM)

How does one choose to architect a system that has a Microservice / REST API endpoints? There are many solutions out there. Some are better than others. Should state be held in a server side component, or externally? Generally we are told this is not a good practice for a Cloud Native system, when the 12-factor guidelines seem to be all about stateless containers, but is it?

Jakarta EE 9 and Beyond

Ivar Grimstad (Eclipse Foundation)

Jakarta EE 9 lowers the barriers of entry, eases migration, and lays a foundation for future innovation. Jakarta EE 9.1 takes this even further by offering Java SE 11 support.

In this session, I will go through what Jakarta EE 9.1 brings to the table and how this release lowers the barriers of entry, eases migration, and lays the foundation for a platform for future innovation. We will also look ahead to what future releases may bring.

The session includes a demo including converting from the javax. to jakarta. namespace as well as looking at available implementations.

Jakarta EE Core Profile - A Slimmer Jakarta EE

Ivar Grimstad (Eclipse Foundation)

The new Jakarta EE Core Profile proposed for Jakarta EE 10 will enable smaller runtimes that are suitable for microservices to be certified as Jakarta EE compatible. The new profile will also aim to be an even better fit for compiling to native images.

Join this session for the latest updates of the progress with Jakarta EE Core Profile and Jakarta EE 10. Who knows, there may even be a demo.

Jakarta EE Security - Sailing Safe in Troubled Waters

Werner Keil (Self Employed)

Ivar Grimstad (Eclipse Foundation)

Security in Jakarta EE has long been under used and under specified. The existing set of specifications ranged from overly complex to non-existent. The result was almost nobody used standards for security. Java EE 8 changed that with JSR 375, the Java EE Security API. Its evolution Jakarta Security facilitates portable application security that integrates with container security. Allowing an application to provide authentication mechanisms like OAuth or OpenID Connect and that mechanism is treated just like built-in container mechanisms like FORM.
