Simon Martinelli, Programming Architect at 72 Services LLC

Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) is a proven design pattern that enables the clear separation of data changes (commands) and data queries (queries). An essential question in the application of CQRS is whether two separate data stores are necessarily required or whether CQRS can also be used effectively to keep data in a single database. In this talk, we will deepen the understanding of the practical implementation of the CQRS principles.

Markus Kett, CEO at MicroStream, Editor in Chief at JAVAPRO Magazine

EclipseStore was built to be the Java persistence for modern cloud-native systems and AI. It follows the system prevalence architectural pattern and enables databaseless in-memory data processing by using Core Java features. Different to traditional databases, EclipseStore supports the real Java object model instead of any database-specific data structure or format. The engine enables seamlessly mirroring any Java object graph of any size and complexity transaction-safe into any object storage such as AWS S3.

16.05.2024 02:30 PM - Cinema 6

Johannes Rabauer, Software developer at XDEV Software GmbH

I'd like to show you an easy way to develop without SQL, mapping, or running a database server. JPA helps a lot with abstracting Java classes to tables, yet it requires a lot of overhead for Java classes. With Spring-Data-Eclipse-Store, as a drop-in alternative, one can stay Java-native and structure classes with fewer restrictions while still having Spring-Data-Repositories.

15.05.2024 01:30 PM - Cinema 6

Piotr Przybyl, Senior Developer Advocate @Elastic, Software Gardener

Integration tests are nice. We all know that and love using them, don't we?
It's just using all those databases, message brokers and other things as real dependencies, only wrapped by Testcontainers, might result in a really heavy CI/CD pipeline and developers' attitude to never run them locally, because they're so slooooooooooow.
What if I could show you a number of techniques, mindset changes and tricks to get your integration tests shortened from quarters to seconds?

14.05.2024 02:30 PM - Cinema 7

Abdel Sghiouar, Senior Cloud Developer Advocate @Google

Can you tell the difference between an API Gateway, the API Gateway, and a Gateway? What are Nginx or HAProxy anyway, are they proxies? controllers? CRD’s? resources?
Sometimes it feels like things are named in a certain way to confuse us on purpose. But don’t worry, to make things simple, we will go back to square zero. We will look at the history of all of these things, where they came from, and what purpose they serve. We will then fast forward into the Cloud Native modern world and you will not be surprised that nothing is new, we are just reusing stuff people used 10, 15, or 20 years ago.

16.05.2024 11:30 AM - Cinema 6

Christian Kuemmel, MicroStream, Project Manager, Senior Software Consultant

EcliseStore is a lightweight and efficient Java persistence framework that enables developers to store and retrieve objects directly in memory, without requiring a separate database management system. This session, you will explore how EclipseStore applications and microservices can be scaled horizontally in the cloud with Kubernetes and what the challenges are. But, instead of struggling with creating your own HELM charts you can use MicroStream's fully managed EclipseStore Cluster Service (MECS).

This talk provides a comprehensive walkthrough of how to package and deploy Jakarta EE applications to be cloud-ready for deployment. The core of the session is a detailed, step-by-step tutorial on packaging a Jakarta EE application for the cloud. This covers creating a WAR file, configuring the application for the cloud, and testing the application locally before deployment, then deploying the packaged application to the cloud. This involves creating the cloud App Service, configuring deployment settings, and uploading the WAR file.

16.05.2024 01:30 PM - Cinema 6

Dmitry Chuyko, Performance Architect at BellSoft

K8s helps enterprises with complex deployments and rapid scaling. But developers often solve only a part of the problem, i.e., withstanding a certain load. Hence, “default” containers behave unexpectedly leading to resource misuse, degradation, and huge cloud bills. To remedy the situation, developers are to be involved in cost optimization with KPIs agreed with the business. From a technical standpoint, this means determining SRE metrics, building efficient containers, and conducting performance tests.
In my presentation, I will show you how containers affect service behavior, and how microcontainers and native images help streamline the deployment.

14.05.2024 09:00 AM - Cinema 6

Jonathan Vila, Developer Advocate at Sonarsource

We go to different community meetups and conferences during the year. Places to learn, to share and more importantly to meet people and discuss a common topic. It's clear the benefit that we can take from them (or not? ), but are we taking the most out of them? Can those events boost our developer careers or even change us? In this talk, I will share my own experiences being part of one Java User Group organization for more than 10 years and as a conference founder & organizer for more than 8, and also as a Speaker for more than 3 years.

Sharat Chander, Senior Director, Java Developer Engagement at Oracle

In the modern world we live in, the pace of innovation is moving at break-neck speed. The volume, velocity and variety of information to be mindful of as we build out the next generation of applications and solutions is hard manage. All too often, we fall into the trap of "Move fast and Break things." Unfortunately, this industry mantra has done more harm than good, leading to a world of innovation that has produced harmful (sometimes tragic results). This inspirational keynote will explore the history of innovation, identifying examples of both positive and negative approaches and the impact that has resulted in.

14.05.2024 09:00 AM - Cinema 5

Balkrishna Rawool, IT Chapter Lead at ING Bank NV

This talk introduces Virtual Threads and Structured Concurrency and explains their benefits and shortcomings. It compares Structured Concurrency API with CompletableFuture API by live coding multiple examples with both of these APIs. A big part of the talk is live coding where multiple examples are first implemented with CompletableFuture and then with Structured Concurrency API. Also, error handling with Structured Concurrency is more explicit as it uses checked exceptions.

14.05.2024 09:00 AM - Cinema Blackbox

Nicolai Parlog, Java Developer Advocate at Oracle

Java 21 was an explosive release, but 22 is no slouch either:

from unnamed patterns to string templates
from the foreign-function and memory API to Stream gatherers and the class-file API
from a simpler `main` to launching multi-source-file programs

There are plenty of language, API and VM features to discuss - whether new, improved, or finalized. So let's go over them!

15.5.2024 1:30 PM, Cinema BlackBox

Sebastian Konieczek, OpenValue Düsseldorf GmbH, Senior Software Developer

Multithreaded applications are to be found everywhere. Think of RESTful micro services for example. The very nature of a classic Webserver is Multithreading as every Request is processed concurrently by an available worker thread. This means a lot of concurrent access to shared resources. And with Java’s virtual threads, there will be even more concurrency.
In this session you will learn what kind of mutex or locking strategies exist and when to choose which. I will give a brief introduction to the techniques Java has to offer and what the locking strategy behind each approach is. You will learn, what to consider when using mutexes in virtual threads.

Steve Poole, Director Developer Advocacy, Sonatype

Java 17 announced the depreciation of the Security Manager but that doesn’t mean the JVM leaves you vulnerable. There are many design features in the JVM and the JDK that are there to help keep your application safe from harm. In this session, we’ll walk through these points - from compiler, to bytecode to runtime and give you a refresher on how to get the best from these features. We’ll also look at new things in the works, compile-to-native consequences and even some off-the-wall “it’s just an idea” thoughts about how to make the JVM an even more secure environment.

Falk Sippach, Software architect at embarc Software Consulting GmbH

Java 21 was packed with exciting and groundbreaking innovations. In the shadow of the very present topics, string templates were relatively surprisingly introduced as a preview feature and are also included again in OpenJDK 22. We discuss the use of string templates, look at the advantages but also the limitations. By creating our own template processors, we can validate and transform the embedded expressions and ultimately create any Java objects such as JSON documents or SQL result sets from Java strings.

Dan Haywood, Software Developer at Haywood Associates Ltd.

Upgrading systems might not be the most sexy of topics, but you can't put it off. This is where we found ourselves, a small team of 2.5 FTE, looking after the core business system (orders, invoices and such like) for our company, with a multi-billion EUR turnover. We basically needed to rework the app to run on a new framework, in essence retrofitting Spring Boot underneath. (The Apache Causeway framework does the heavy lifting, sitting in between our domain app and Spring Boot). So this is a talk about how we managed to do it, by developing a number of techniques that we thought might be useful to pass along.

Paweł Zajączkowski, Development Manager at Xebia Poland

Leaders struggle with unclear choices every day, when following their path. What factors should be taken into account when making difficult decisions? How to navigate the meanders of different personalities, organizations and a changing business environment? How to balance time, money and emotions while maintaining internal consistency? If only there were some magic box into which, on the one end, we put the description and context of the situation, and on the other, we receive instructions on what to do...

Supposedly heading the team, but often alone. So let's go on an adventure and face these dilemmas together.

Johan Hutting, Developer advocate at ING

Open sourcing your code seems easy these days. Libraries however pose some interesting challenges: your consumers and dependencies change, you'll need to submit it to a repository, and the added need for proper documentation. In this talk we'll cover the benefits of open sourcing your library as well as the steps you'll need to take using a real-world example. We'll also cover some of the added challenges you'll face such as releasing to Maven central, keeping your code up to date and secure as well as the altered consumers of your code. This session will equip you with a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and benefits of open sourcing a Java library, enabling you to open, or perhaps start writing, your own.

Hanno Embregts, Java Developer by day, musician by night. A bit of both at conferences.

One of the most iconic rock songs ever written starts with the line "There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold..." and chances are you know the rest of the lyrics by heart. Though one could argue that this ability is rather useless. It's not like it makes you a better software developer, right? Right?! Allow me to change your mind! I know that the lyrics to "Stairway to Heaven" have sparked countless online debates over its meaning, but being a developer and a musician, I think it is actually about software development. So during this talk I will perform snippets of the song, explain why I think it is about software development and how your next software project can be better because of it.

Every day, we learn: good patterns, bad patterns—the brain doesn’t differentiate! However, for us to simply say, “I learn while I do,” might be a bit too easy. Or, at least, one might wonder if it’s the most efficient and satisfying way to learn. During this talk, you'll learn how our brains absorb and retain new information. Afterward, we’ll explore how you can create the best conditions and environment for your specific learning needs. Among other things, we’ll cover what has scientifically been proven to be the ideal learning blocks regarding time and content. We’ll discover how to create an environment that improves our focus and remain in the “flow.”

"DevOps" is the operations people’s crafty plan to make Java developers do other people's work, but we are smart enough to see right through this naive rebranding trick! Now, out of the blue, a bunch of "thought leaders" (all with an operations background, mind you!) are trying to tell us that we have to learn YAML, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform to deploy our software because suddenly it is our concern?! In this talk, we'll discuss why Java developers do or don’t need DevOps. We'll consider arguments made by DevOps visionaries and see whether they hold water.

There is always that one person who never really has any issues with their code. They follow the latest coding practices and introduce minimal bugs and vulnerabilities, all while drinking vast amounts of caffeine. Maybe it’s just all the caffeine, but why does that not work for me? This is where static analysis tools come in to save the day and give us simple mortals superpowers. In this session, I will talk about what static analysis tools are, how they came to be a thing, what superpowers they can provide developers, and how they can help make the world a more secure, maintainable and efficient place. I will also demonstrate one of these tools to show you the power and potential they hold.

New microservices often start from reference templates of other microservices. But when those copies drift apart, your landscape grows wild and becomes difficult to maintain. Code changes that are not well thought out can lead to hard-to-find bugs and inconsistencies. We’ll explore automation to help your services quickly conform to higher standards again. We’ll apply and update build tool wrappers, modernize your test suites, clear out unused feature flags, upgrade Java versions and frameworks, standardize pipelines, and adopt new libraries and language features. For this, we’ll look at OpenRewrite and the Moderne Platform and CLI, for reliable automated code changes.

As developers, we spend a lot of time learning to write code, while spending little to no time learning to read code. Meanwhile, we often spend more time reading code than actually writing it. Deliberate practice can help us get better at reading code. Learning how to better read and understand code, can in turn teach us what makes code readable. In this talk we will discuss the benefits of deliberately practicing reading code in a code reading club or session without an IDE, as well as common strategies to navigate a new codebase and familiarise ourselves with the code using the IDE.

In this talk, we will delve into the question whether generative AI can generate working code when we only provide test cases. So we take the main principle from TDD: we write the tests up front. Then we use a generative AI to create the code. If you wrote the tests correctly, and they all pass, you should have a working prototype. Even better, if the tests pass and you trust the tests, the code is production ready! With some live coding, we will explore this idea together. After attending, you should be able to apply this technique to your own project.

Your database administrator has raised concerns about inefficient queries generated by Hibernate without providing any explanation? This can be challenging because ORMs abstract away the complexities of what is executed in the database, and every database has a unique implementation. In this session, we will explore some Hibernate mapping strategies and analyze the SQL queries generated by them. We will also discuss the impact of these strategies on database performance and provide insights for Java developers to optimize code execution or improve their indexing strategy.

This presentation will show you how to manage testing data in two different ways. The first way is the creation of a Test Data Factory approach, where we will use the Factory Pattern to easily create any objects we want with understandable and reliable data. In a second way, we will learn and apply the Data-Driven Testing approach, where the same requirement can be applied to different sets of data, generating different results. With the support of JUnit 5 you will learn how to do it in 5 different ways: value source, internal method source, external method source, argument provider, and CVS source.

Ever tried to catch melting snowflakes? That's the challenge of dealing with flaky tests - those annoying, unpredictable tests that fail randomly and pass when rerun. In this talk, we'll slide down the slippery slope of why flaky tests are more than just a nuisance. They're time-sinks, morale crushers, and silent code quality killers. We'll skate across real-life scenarios to understand how flaky tests can freeze your development in its tracks, and why sweeping them under the rug is like ignoring a crack in the ice. From delayed releases to lurking bugs, the stakes are high, and the costs are real.
