 Java Emerging Technologies

Host: Joe Walker

Despite being 10 years old, the Java community continues to be a source for a lot of innovation in web and enterprise development. This track presents leading edge technologies and fresh-techniques that are being successfully applied by early adopters and represent a vision for what mainstream enterprise Java development could be like tomorrow.

Existing Java web development paradigms are being changed by new integrated stacks like Seam and Grails, JRuby is providing serious productivity gains and is ready for a number of compelling production uses, and OSGi represents what may become the new standard component model for Java applications of any size.
