Description

Our world. Moved by Java. 25 years of ongoing innovation

The world has been Moved by Java for a quarter of a century, but we’re just getting started. The pace of innovation of Java has only accelerated in the past few years, and projects like Amber (making Java more productive, expressive, and less ceremonial), Loom (making highly-concurrent applications easier to write and maintain), and ZGC (low-latency garbage collection) are delivering features into the hands of developers today, while longer-term projects like Valhalla (value types) have the potential to change the game.
Join Chad Arimura, Vice President of Developer Relations, to hear about the latest innovations in Java and what makes it the #1 development platform in the world after so many years.

BIO SPEAKERS

Chad Arimura (VP Developer Relations @ Oracle)
I am a 3x entrepreneur, most recently as co-founder and CEO of Iron.iowhere we grew a multi-million dollar ARR business helping pioneer serverless computing including some of the earliest usages of the term "serverless" in 2010. We sold the company in 2017 and joined Oracle.
On joining Oracle as Vice President of Serverless, I established the serverless organization, under which produced The Fn Project and laterOracle Functions, making Oracle one of the only major clouds to offer a functions-as-a-service platform largely built on upstream open source code. Once the serverless org was fully established, I moved to the Java Platform Group to help build out the developer relations team.
