Simon Ritter Keeping up with Java: Look at all these new features

New Java releases are coming faster than ever now that we are well into the new sixmonth release cadence. The number of new features and APIs in each version is less than were used to, but the overall rate of change is actually faster than before. In this session, well take a tour of the new features that will help developers as well as things that improve Java deployments. Well also discuss issues that will affect migration of applications from earlier versions and choices for which version to choose for deployment. Oracle has changed the license for their JDK and how updates are made available is also different from what were used to. Well finish with a quick discussion of the best approaches to take to adapt to this and the choices available.
