Java EE 6 - Leaner In The IDE, Than On Slides

WARNING: I will spend the whole time in the IDE and build a fully functional end-to-end Java EE 6 application with Bean Validation, CDI, EJB 3.1, JPA 2, JSF 2. All questions will be answered in real time - and with code. Its 2010, but some applications are still built on the ancient J2EE “best practices”. Extensive, but superfluous layering, top down approaches for DAOs, too many external libraries and framework dependencies, extensive, never used configuration and extensions, lean servers but overbloated applications are just a few symptoms. This session is targeted to all Java developers, managers and architects, it discusses the lean and pragmatic approach for building Java EE 6 applications with EJB 3.1, CDI, JPA 2.0, Bean Validation, JSF 2, but without any overhead and an incremental way to make your applications leaner.

Track abstract - Conversation Corner

Will the future of Java be decided by the community or by the corporation(s)?

A panel debate moderated by Emily Bache. Audience members are invited to submit questions to our panel of debaters. Each panel member has written a short position statement outlining their opinions (see below). We anticipate lively discussion.

"By both" :-). Future of Java will be decided by Corporations guided by the experience and community feedback.

Henrik Ståhl
Developers want rapid progress, corporations are generally more conservative. Who should decide what new features are adoption into the Java Platform and on what grounds? What is an appropriate tradeoff between compatibility and innovation? Oracle believes that Java could not be successful without the support of both the corporations and the community. The challenge is to find an appropriate balance.

Martjin Verburg & Ben Evans
Oracle should be expanding the pie (more Java developers/users), but Oracle is perceived to have been involved in driving several vocal and influential Java based communities away. Unlike Oracle product groups, Java communities are fiercely independent and produce the sorts of products and frameworks that continue to prop Java up as one of the defacto languages to choose for any serious development. While we feel that Oracle have an immense amount to offer, the promise that they showed before the acquisition is not something that we think has been fully realised.  As passionate Java developers we feel that the platform has the full potential to be the unquestioned software platform for the the decades to come. We feel that Oracle has to realise that the eco-system consists of more than just them. We look for opportunities for both sides to learn from each other and are hopeful that the outcome will be beneficial to all.
