Java 21 By Brian Goetz

Modern application development is unrecognisable without Java. For more than 28 years, Java has empowered developers to create the next generation of rich, scalable, and secure applications. In this keynote, Brian Goetz (Java Language Architect, Oracle) offers insight and updates from the recent Java 21 release as well as covering how Oracle’s ongoing Java technology leadership and community stewardship are driving the developer ecosystem forward.

Brian Goetz is the Java Language Architect at Oracle and was the specification lead for JSR-335 (Lambda Expressions for the Java Programming Language). He is the author of Java Concurrency in Practice and over 75 articles about Java development.

A pleasure to listen to Brian's talks as always!!

[@Gennys]

The reason I like Brian so much is because I know he is incredibly good at systems architecture but he's also one of the best if not the best public speakers about Java, the JVM, and systems architecture in general.

amazing how well articulated this talk was

[@tintifax8531]

The first 8 minutes or so are really worth listening to even if you already know all the Java 21 features: it's about how they managed to actually pull off the 6-month release cadence and all the initial resistance encountered both inside and outside the community and Oracle.

It was superb and summarizes most of what was presented at this year's Java Virtual Machine Language Summit. I am incredibly excited about the JVM ecosystem at this time and the next few months, and I am confident that Java 25 will be the moment when even more features will come together and really impress other languages and niches!

[@Gennys]

Great beginning of the talk by the way. Java has been so much better now that they've implemented the sort of Linux distribution model of releases having long-term support releases and releases in between and allowing preview features.
I call it the Linux distribution model because it's the one that comes to mind but if anybody knows a better example let me know.

Please add the timestamp bookmarks. Thanks.

11:00 and this is the best

[@DesuTechHub]

6 months release cycle made feature delivery latency improved but throughput went down. I think, this is inline with how system tuning works.

[@cya3mdirl158]

Kotlin is much better.
Java is like baroque full of splendor.

[@keylanoslokj1806]

Have you yet made it less verbose and actually practical? What no? Ok, i will come back in another 15 years😂

[@michelvandermeiren8661]

Java is the GOAT programming lang
