The Ghosts of Java EE 7 in Production: Past, Present and Future - No Fluff Just Stuff

The Ghosts of Java EE 7 in Production: Past, Present and Future

Posted by: Reza Rahman on June 8, 2015

In the past few days I've seen a certain predictable group of folks on the Interwebs feigning concern over the viability of using Java EE 7 in production. I have to be honest in that I think it is fairly obvious these concerns are more -ahem- opportunistic than sincere or well-intentioned. Nevertheless I think this is a great trigger to discuss something valuable to the Java EE community anyway - Java EE 7 production adoption in the near past, present and near future.

Head over to my personal blog to read what I hope is a slightly entertaining toungue-in-cheeck but hopefully useful personal insights on the matter. I've dicussed what makes Java EE 7 important both in terms of challenge and opportunity, summarized what we know of real world Java EE 7 adoption right at this moment as well as what we can share shortly, how you can go about using Java EE 7 now and in the near future as well as a brief shot in the dark as to what wonders the future might bring for us all :-). Enjoy!
