[VDBUH22] Edson Yanaga - Keynote: The Java Renaissance

Legacy. Slow. An insatiable memory consumer. There was some truth to this about Java. And for these reasons, Java didn’t have a place in the Cloud 2.0 landscape for many developers. After 25 years, Java has been through the middle ages. And luckily, for the benefit of the cloud world, Java is shining again. We’re seeing huge improvements in developer productivity. Production workloads are as fast as ever but consume drastically reduced memory. Java is a strong contender for use cases in unexplored areas. OpenJDK and Eclipse Adoptium are blazing. Join me in this session, and let me guide you past the dark ages towards the remarkable Java Renaissance.
