Hi!
Join us to look at what’s new in Java 9, 10 and 11. Also, to understand the new Java release cycle. Jim’s the point man on that and also a JavaFX expert, so there’s a chance to ask some other questions.
Agenda,
1) New Java Release Cadence
2) What’s new in Java 9
3) What’s new in Java 10
4) What’s new in Java 11
Jim is a Master Sales Consultant in Oracle’s Java Group.
His primary role is to advise Fortune 500 companies on best Java security practices and Java Roadmap planning.
He has spent the past 20 years, starting with Sun Microsystems,
working with Java specializing in distributed Object and UI technologies.
Jim is the primary author of the book, “JavaFX: Developing Rich Internet Applications”.
Of course, we’ll have great pizza and bevs (thanks to Oracle this time!) and be sure to RSVP because that’s how we determine how much to buy.
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.

Swiggy detailed real-time machine-learning ranking system for autocomplete built on OpenSearch. The architecture separates candidate generation and ranking, uses feature stores for real time signals, and applies learning to rank models for improved relevance. It replaces heuristic ranking while maintaining strict latency constraints and enabling continuous model updates from user behavior signals.

This week's Java roundup for May 11th, 2026, features news highlighting: three OpenJDK JEPs targeted for JDK 27; introducting Azul Payara Community and the WildFly wado CLI tool; point releases of LangChain4j and Google ADK; and maintenance releases of Micronaut and OpenXava.
By Michael RedlichMichael Stiefel spoke to Baruch Sadogursky about software architecture in the age of agentic AI. LLM can function, albeit stochastically, as reasoning machines capable of interpreting human ambiguity. With the appropriate rigorous context artifacts to control the LLM’s reasoning, software specifications can become the source of truth, while the code becomes a disposable intermediate language.

We wanted to expose a B2B intelligence platform built on more than one million company profiles to an LLM client through an MCP server so a user can ask “find SaaS companies in Germany with 50-200 employees” and receive results through the LLM client. The engineering problem was: How do you make that workflow useful without creating an unsafe bridge between an LLM and production data?
