Java EE @ NFJS New England Software Symposium Boston - No Fluff Just Stuff

Java EE @ NFJS New England Software Symposium Boston

Posted by: Reza Rahman on November 3, 2014

As some of you may be aware I recently joined the well-respected US based No Fluff Just Stuff (NFJS) Tour. The NFJS New England Software Symposium was held September 19 - 21 in Boston. This is one of the larger NFJS shows and attendance at the show and my sessions was pretty good. It is always encouraging to see the same folks attend more than one talk. On my way to the show I also stopped by at the Connecticut Java User Group. The JUG is led by my friend and co-author for EJB 3 in Action Ryan Cuprak. I've spoken at the JUG a number of times over the years and it was good to be back.

I had five talks total over two days, more or less back-to-back. I did talks on Java EE 7/Java EE 8, the Cargo Tracker Java EE Blue Prints, JavaScript + Java EE, Java EE + NoSQL as well as JMS 2. More details, including slide decks and code as well as my NFJS tour schedule, posted on my personal blog.
