Java2Days 2015 was held on November 2-4 in Sofia, Bulgaria. It is far and away the largest Java conference in the Balkans region and now perhaps one of the most important conferences in Europe as a whole. This was another great year for this rapidly growing, vibrant event. It attracted a host of international and local speakers including Patrick Curran, Geertjan Wielenga, Ivan St. Ivanov, Vladimir Pavlov and Andrew Lombardi. Topics included Java SE, Java EE, HTML5/JavaScript, mobile, and the cloud.

I did talks on real world microservices with Java EE and aligning Java EE with the reactive movement. I also ran a lab on JMS 2. More details, including slide decks, session video and code, posted on my personal blog.
