In this presentation, we will briefly review key changes between Java 11 and 21, as they form an important foundation for where Java is heading. Once that foundation is laid, we will look at what has changed in Java since 21, including the likely finalization of the two remaining big features of Project Loom, Scoped Values and Structured Concurrency, and how that will rewrite the story of concurrency in Java.

We will also cover other important changes, including Generational ZGC, Java language updates, and the Foreign Function and Memory API, and even take a look into the future of where Java is heading!

⚠️ This presentation is updated with the current or next release once it has entered ramp-down phase 1, which usually happens about three months before the upcoming release.

Note: This is a hybrid online/in-person meeting. Food and social begins at 6pm for those in the Object Computing training room. Meeting begins at 6:30pm for those online and in the training room.
