One day down, two to go. Monday was, as it always is, pretty packed, so did you get a chance so study the program for Tuesday, or did you spend all your time at the JAOO Today bar at the party? In any case, here are some suggestions on what to see today.
Open JDK and What it Means for the Java Developer by Dalibor Topic
Tuesday 11:30 – 12:30 in Lille Sal
I’m not expecting any revelations here, but you might want to go so that you can ask the one important question: When oh when will we actually have JDK7? And will it be too late? And what happened to all the exciting new features? And will the Sun JVM and the JRockit JVM continue to live separately? And when will we have type inference in Java? And will we ever have proper generics? And how about doing something to make it easier to avoid the dreaded PermGen OOM error? Oh well, probable you won’t get an answer to any of this, but it’s probably nice to get an update on OpenJDK nevertheless.
Buy it, Build it, Download It, or Browse It? Achieving Effectiveness with Enterprise Applications by Michael T. Nygaard
Tuesday 13:30 – 14:30 in Rytmisk Sal
This might be most interesting if you haven’t been to one of Michael T. Nygaards sessions yet, but it’s relevant to everybody. This talk might not be the most technical talk ever, but being a software developer, you might have a hard case of Not Invented Here – why buy something when you can do it yourself? In this talk, Michael will discuss this subject in detail, focusing how to get most value for your money.
REST & Caching: Web Services, Accelerated by Stefan Tilkov
Tuesday 16:15 – 17:15 in Filuren
We all know that REST is computer-God’s gift to developers, and we also know many of the arguments for using REST: it’s simple, it uses the normal HTTP protocol and features, easy to debug, no need to use some complicated stack, and so on. However, implementing the HTTP features, for example caching, isn’t exactly trivial, especially when you have to do it from scratch. This is why you might want to take a look at this session by REST-guru Stefan Tilkov. I’m hoping to see some actual code, but I can live with some good advice on caching strategies. Throw something about Edge Side Includes, and I’ll even be happy.
