We’re making some changes at JavaOne to give you more hours than ever to take advantage of the hundreds of technical sessions, hands-on labs, and BOFs that will be offered this year.
To free up time for session slots on Monday and Tuesday, the Java Strategy, Partner, and Technical keynotes will be held on the Sunday of conference week, beginning at 4:00 p.m. And in order to accommodate the ever-growing number of attendees, the location for the keynotes is new this year as well: the historic Masonic Auditorium on Nob Hill. After the keynotes, attendees can go to the official JavaOne Open House at the Taylor Street Café @ the Zone.
As in years past, Sunday will feature User Group meetings (at Moscone West) and Java University courses (Hilton San Francisco Union Square). On Thursday, the Java Community keynote will return—always a great way to start wrapping up the week.

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

On June 9, 2026, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5, a model designed for long-horizon tasks, but it was taken offline shortly after due to a U.S. government export directive. It shares architecture with Claude Mythos 5, supporting extensive token usage. The model includes mandatory data retention requirements, which have affected its deployment with partners like Microsoft.

Broadcom released Spring Boot 4.1 on June 10, 2026, to deliver gRPC auto-configuration, HTTP-client SSRF mitigation, and upgrades to Kotlin 2.3. It also brings lazy datasource connections, async context propagation for @Async methods, and improved OpenTelemetry support. Uncharacteristically, Broadcom moved the releases twice, first from May 11-22 to June 1-5, then to June 8-12.

Vercel Labs recently open-sourced zero-native, a cross-platform framework for native desktop applications. Zero-native bypasses Electron runtime in favor or native OS WebViews and claims to achieve smaller, more efficient native apps with minimal overhead. Zero-native is written in Zig, thus directly interoperates with native C libraries, and features fast incremental compilation times.

AWS has recently introduced durability for Amazon ElastiCache for Valkey, enabling reliable data retention across failures and expanding support beyond caching to persistent workloads. The feature offers new options that prioritize either minimizing data loss or maintaining lower write latency, expanding the range of use cases supported by the Redis fork.

HashiCorp has announced the general availability of the Terraform MCP Server, an open-source MCP server that enables agents to integrate with Terraform Registry APIs. The company says that it can improve infrastructure teams productivity by relieving engineers of rote tasks.
