Jakarta EE 11 Canonical Deck

[Reza Rahman]

Hi folks,

While EE 11 is obviously not quite done yet, I would like to begin working on the Jakarta EE Ambassadors' shared deck. Here is the first draft: jakartaee11.pptx.

Could you kindly review in the next two weeks? After the slide content is sorted, I will add detailed speaker notes (I'll share for review again after I add notes). Then I'll record an example run.

Thanks,

Hi Reza,

 

Unfortunately the Batch job definition API in slides 28, 30 is still just an idea.  We didn’t actually do a Batch update in EE 11.  It is still at Batch 2.1, (so you still get the Java 21 support from the platform, but that’s it).

 

Thanks,
Scott

Right, aware. The deck has a number of forward looking items we would like people to help contribute. Typically these are things that all have been discussed in the past.

Hi,

Slide deck looks great!

However, there is a piece missing. Jakarta EE 11 is the first release that removes "Umbrella JARs" from the APIs.

This has been done in PR https://github.com/jakartaee/jakartaee-api/pull/137

Frankly, this is a huge step forward in flexibility and adaptability of Jakarta EE.

Before EE 11, Umbrella JAR was very confusing and inflexible, leading to questions like: "do we have to wait for next EE?"

"Can we upgrade, or does this break one spec while fixing another?"

With EE 11, all this cognitive load is gone. EE APIs support the tested specs out-of-the box as before,

however "regular" maven dependencies can be updated, excluded, new ones included without a fuss anymore.

EE 11 is no longer a "special" dependency, but a regular dependency like any other.

This can adapt EE 11 to any environment, any new (or old) APIs without any issues.

First major win is that MicroProfile is now fully compatible with Jakarta EE "as-is", without going through

any maven gymnastics of including / excluding duplicate spec JARs and having to see why wrong spec versions were picked up.

I think it's worth putting that in the slide deck and more prominently in the docuemntation

[Reza Rahman]

I'll need to think about this a bit. The deck is intended for beginners and skeptics as well as existing adopters. This may be a bit too much for this sort of higher level overview.

On the other hand, I think something like this is perfect for a dedicated blog entry.

I am now considering the deck done for now: https://1drv.ms/p/s!AlSoTwbDM7bzgpcBqSlyC6FtH4F58g?e=eUFlP7. The next step is to add speaker notes, probably next week.

Looks great!
