Async file IO with Panama and Java
Discover project Panama as we implement IO_uring entirely in Java. This session shows you how to use async file IO in linux or use any other C library in Java! Learn how to leverage native interoperability to interact with the operating system without sacrificing Java's elegance and productivity. By the end of this session, you'll have a solid understanding of Project Panama's capabilities and be equipped to implement (almost) any C library!

FP en OOP: Best Friends Forever?
Modern programming languages are increasingly becoming a mix of multiple paradigms. Object-Oriented Programming languages (OOP) like Java and Kotlin, for example, are being further extended with concepts from Functional Programming languages (FP). Think of immutability and lambda expressions. What happens when we combine both programming styles in a single codebase? Can OOP and FP complement each other?

In this talk, we'll explore what happens when we introduce FP patterns in OOP code. Perhaps it will turn out that OOP and FP are indeed BFFs!
