About the talks

Java 9 Modularity in Action

With Java 9, modularity comes to your doorstep (whether you ordered it or not). This isn’t your average language feature: making the most out of it may involve rewiring your brain. In this session we explore the benefits of a modular codebase using Java 9 modules. Because who doesn’t like more reliable and secure applications, meanwhile killing the dreaded classpath?

After reviewing the basic concepts of modules, we’ll explore other new features like services and linking that enhance your design and development skills. Want examples? We’ve got plenty in this practical and code-driven talk. Even if you intend to use Java 9 without modules at first, this talk helps you prevent common issues. You’ll be ready for Java 9 before you know it.

What's New in Java 9?

Besides the module system, Java 9 has plenty more to offer. In this second part of the evening, we're going to look at these other new features. You'll learn about new APIs and enhancements to existing APIs. We'll also explore what JShell is and how it can help you during development. Of course, not all new features are developer-facing, so security and performance enhancements are discussed as well. Last, you may be in for a shock: as of Java 9, the release schedule for major Java versions will be much more aggressive. Interested in what this will mean for you? Join this session and find out!

Java Developer Career

The best way to improve as a developer is to work in amazing projects, ​with teams of great developers. And the way to get into those teams is... Being a great developer? How does that even makes sense? Java Champion Bruno Souza spent 20 years helping developers improve their careers and will give you the exact steps you can follow to shine in yours!
