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.

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.
