Jakarta EE is gaining speed, and is on its way to a predictable release cadence, following the trail of Java SE. With Jakarta EE 10, a new core profile came to life, with the specifications present in MicroProfile plus a couple more.

MicroProfile was started as a reaction to Java EE moving slowly. Now Jakarta EE is certainly moving both fast and reliably, so it’s time to look ahead on what the future for Jakarta EE and MicroProfile can look like.

There are several paths leading forward, each with its benefits, challenges and drawbacks. In this talk, we’ll dive into the option of creating a new profile inside Jakarta EE, Jakarta EE micro profile. This profile can consist of the core profile plus the suitable ones from MicroProfile. The ambition being one single profile bringing all the support you need to build your microservices.

Hi!

It’s time to truly discuss the path forward for MicroProfile. In this talk, we stick our necks out and open the discussion for the general Java crowd.

We can do this talk as a straight-forward talk, or we can do it in the form of a BOF, where we give a short (think five minute) introduction before we kick off the debate.

Let us know what fits the best into the schedule, and we’ll adapt.
