Join our upcoming #JakartaTechTalk! Otavio Santana will guide us through Jakarta EE 12 and the data age of enterprise Java from unified querying to modern data-driven architectures. hubs.la/Q04fXqQx0 #opensource #JakartaEE #cloudnative

Great tests are more than validation. 🧪 They are: 📚 documentation 🧠 behavioral specs 💬 communication tools Use @DisplayName + @Nested in JUnit to make your tests express the ubiquitous language of your domain. #Java #JUnit #DDD #Testing

Jakarta EE 12 gives developers the freedom to choose how they work with data — while ensuring those choices remain consistent, portable, and predictable across the platform. #JakartaEE #Software #REST

As Otavio Santana, an award-winning software engineer, Java Champion, and long-time contributor to the Java ecosystem, says in an interview: “JPA didn’t break. #OpenSource #java #Software

Happy to be a speaker at @GeeCON again this year with a @JakartaEE presentation! #JakartaEE #EclipseFoundation #Community #geecon

At @arcofai Simon Maple @sjmaple from The AI Native Dev @ainativedev and I talked all things agentic coding, from “what makes a senior developer” to why while you can outsource your work to AI, you can’t outsource your reputation. Watch at youtu.be/C0OeWkbhiL8

The rise of ai in software development actually makes REAL software engineering more critical than ever. While tools like GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Cursor make ai code generation cheap, they don’t solve the real bottlenecks. Video live on @ModernSoftwareX (link in bio)

@john_waterwood @OmniFishEE Yes!! The latest version is working with both and passing the TCK

@otaviojava @OmniFishEE Do the latest milestones of Jakarta Data 1.1 and JNoSQl already use / depend on Jakarta Query?

Jakarta Query plays a central role in that shift, ensuring that regardless of where data lives, Java developers can reason about queries in a unified, object-oriented way. #Java #JakartaEE #JakartaQuery

Most meetings fail before they start. 🤝 No context No agenda No async preparation Great engineering meetings need: ✅ clear objectives ✅ shared documentation ✅ async review beforehand Meetings should make decisions — not discover context. #SoftwareEngineering #Architecture

It does so by focusing on common operations that appear across NoSQL systems — mapping, querying, inserting, updating, and deleting — while avoiding assumptions that only make sense in relational environments. #Java #JakartaEE #NoSQL

To make this concrete, Jakarta Data defines repository abstractions that eliminate significant boilerplate while remaining explicit and type-safe. #Java #JakartaEE #DataAccess lttr.ai/ArDbE

NEW POST Will there be source code in the future? To wrestle with this, we have to understand what code is. Unmesh Joshi sees code as having two distinct but intertwined purposes: instructions to a machine and a conceptual model of the problem domain. martinfowler.com/articles/what-…

🚨What’s New: Database Navigator plugin v3.7.4 - available at JetBrains Plugin Marketplace rb.gy/t0qpzn as well as from within the JetBrains IDEs using the integrated plugin manager #Java #IntelliJ #OracleAIDatabase #JavaOracleDB @OracleDatabase @Oracle @jetbrains

Engineers hate documentation. 📄 But we hate endless meetings even more. 😅 Good documentation can replace repetitive discussions and scale knowledge across teams. 💡 Documentation is scalable. Your time is not. #SoftwareEngineering #Productivity #Architecture
