Java 8 with Java EE 7

Java EE 7 is productive, pragmatic and lean. A combination of Java EE 7 APIs with Java 8 functional features and extensions makes even more code superfluous and introduces fully new paradigms.

In this workshop I would like to present you ideas, examples and emerging (best) practices for Java EE 7 "on" Java 8.

Prerequisites

Java EE experience or attendance at the Effective Java EE workshop.

Topics

• Intro to the new Java 8 features and APIs
• Combining CDI and Java 8
• Concurrency Utilities for Java EE and Java 8
• No-interface abstractions with Java EE 7 and Java 8
• Concurrency, parallelization and locking
• In-memory processing / analytics with Java 8
• Reactive programming with Java 8 and Java EE 7
• Impact of Java 8 on Java EE architectures
• JPA + Java 8 = more speed and power
• In-memory grids and Java 8
• Fluid logic with Java 8 and Java EE
• Data transformations
• Templating, configuration and DSLs
• Automation and test
• Real Time event processing

In this advanced workshop I would like to explain the most significant features with working code and prepared examples. As a reference, you will get a GIT repository with all snippets and solutions, as well as prepared sample applications.

A developer laptop with pre-installed Java 1.8, GIT-client and Maven 3 is required to run the examples. You can run the examples if you like, or "hack" along with me, but taking notes is perfectly viable as well.
