**The JUG organizers present: Valkey and Java:**

In this session you’ll learn about Valkey, a new Linux Foundation, open source, high-performance Key/Value database from both a technical and project perspective. First, the session will cover what triggered the fork from Redis and what the Valkey project aims to achieve. Then, we’ll shift into learning how to interact with Valkey and how to best optimize storing data in the database. From that point we’ll jump off into how Valkey interacts with your Java application, showing the pros and cons of various libraries. With that foundation, the talk will shift into Valkey’s new extended functionality: JSON, Bloom, and Vector Similarity Search. Finally, you’ll find out how you can get involved with the project.

*Kyle is the Senior Developer Advocate on the Valkey project. He has a long history with open source software development; he was a founding contributor to the OpenSearch project and most recently worked to build a community around Bottlerocket OS . When not working, Kyle enjoys 3D printing and getting his hands dirty in his Edmonton, Alberta-based home garden.*

*Kyle has written over 70 technology-related blog posts, tutorials, and bylines, published a book on microservice architectures, been a guest on more than a dozen podcasts, and presented at over 20 different conferences around the world (and too many meetups to list). He presents on a diverse range of topics such as open source strategy, data structures, 3D modelling, operating systems, and embedded electronics.*
