OTTAWA, May 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Eclipse Foundation, the platform for open collaboration and innovation, today released the 2019 Jakarta EE developer survey http://bit.ly/2VaHkTH that canvassed nearly 1,800 Java developers about their adoption of Jakarta EE and trends in Java programming. The survey was conducted by the Eclipse Foundation in March of 2019 in cooperation with member companies and partners, including the London Java Community and Java User Groups worldwide. The goal of the survey was to help Java ecosystem stakeholders better understand the requirements, priorities, and perceptions of enterprise Java developer communities.
The future of the Java ecosystem and Jakarta EE is increasingly driven by new cloud workloads and capabilities.
“Java continues to dominate as the language of choice for organizations deploying applications in production environments and this latest survey shows the same level of support as our 2018 survey,” said Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the Eclipse Foundation. “What’s most interesting is to see the acceleration in the adoption of Java in new cloud native architectures. Clearly the future of Jakarta EE is cloud native.”
Other survey highlights include:

Jakarta EE represents a renaissance for the Java community. Survey respondents made it clear that as Java EE is evolving into Jakarta EE, this remains the platform they rely on most to build true enterprise-class applications. Under the Eclipse Foundation, the Jakarta EE Working Group is based on a self-governing meritocracy that sets all technical agendas and plans. The founding members of the Jakara EE Working Group are DocDoku, IncQuery Labs, Fujitsu, Genuitec, IBM, Lightbend, Microsoft, Oracle, Payara Systems, Pivotal, Red Hat, SAP, Tomitribe, Vaadin, and Webtide.
