If a new proposal by Oracle is accepted, oversight of Java technical standards will fall under the auspices of a single committee, rather than the current system, which has separate entities for Java EE/SE and ME.
Java SE and EE concern desktop and server environments while ME is for mobile and embedded uses of Java.

This post will soon contain several Java interfaces for something called a Generatrix. It is the subject of a research article I have submitted to an upcoming IEEE conference. The sample code here will be a supplement to the article for the benefit of the review team and readers, if the article is accepted.
Stand By.

Microsoft's TypeScript 7, codenamed Project Corsa, transforms the compiler with a complete rewrite in Go, achieving up to 10x faster builds and reduced memory usage. With strict mode enabled by default, this update enhances type safety while maintaining compatibility. Developers are excited about the performance gains and improved efficiency for large codebases.

Hugo Marques explains how to navigate Java concurrency at scale, moving beyond simple frameworks to solve high-throughput IO challenges. Drawing from real-world Netflix projects, he discusses the pitfalls of nested parallel streams, managing backpressure with semaphores, and the shift from bounded executors to Virtual Threads. Learn to protect downstream services while maximizing JVM performance.

Spec-Driven Development inverts traditional architecture by making specifications executable and authoritative. It transforms declared intent into validated code through AI generation and provides architectural determinism. It eliminates drift through continuous enforcement, but demands new engineering discipline in schema design and contract-first reasoning.
By Leigh Griffin, Ray CarrollIn this podcast, InfoQ spoke with Somtochi Onyekwere on recent developments in distributed data systems, how to achieve fast, eventually consistent replication across distributed nodes, and how Conflict-free Replicated Data Type (CRDTs) can help with conflict resolution when managing data.

AWS has expanded Amazon CloudWatch to unify log management across operational and security use cases. By integrating native OCSF normalization and Apache Iceberg-compatible storage via S3 Tables, the update aims to eliminate data silos and enable Zero-ETL analytics across multiple AWS accounts and regions.
