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.

Today, June 8th, InfoQ celebrates 20 years. This is not a comprehensive history, but a deliberately selective look at the technologies and practices InfoQ identified early, where they sit on the adoption curve in 2026, and how that curve may evolve over the next five to ten years.

HashiCorp has released Terraform 1.15, introducing dynamic module sources, a formal deprecation mechanism for variables and outputs, a new inline type conversion function, type constraints for output blocks, and native Windows ARM64 support. The release addresses several long-standing requests from the Terraform community.

Microsoft announced Logic Apps Automation at Build 2026, a new SKU at auto.azure.com packaging workflows, AI agents, knowledge services, and model access into a managed SaaS experience. Agents integrate via agent-loop orchestration, Foundry agents, and managed sandbox. Knowledge as a Service provides a fully managed RAG pipeline.

Rocicorp has released Zero 1.0, a stable version of its sync engine after two years of development. This update introduces a schema change hook for Supabase and includes bug fixes. Zero operates by pairing a client library with a read-only Postgres cache. Community feedback highlights positive developer experience but raises concerns about production readiness and existing limitations.

AWS recently announced ExtendDB, a DynamoDB-compatible adapter that lets developers use the DynamoDB API with different storage backends, starting with PostgreSQL. The project supports existing SDKs and tools without modification, giving teams greater flexibility to run DynamoDB-style workloads outside of native DynamoDB while maintaining compatibility with current applications and workflows.
