   Java: Where are we?
   ● #1 Tiobe Index
   ● Widely used in enterprise software
   ● 20+ years of experience
   ● Often first choice in universities
   ● Powers the smallest to largest runtimes

   Thinking positively about Java?
   Still learning about features in Java 8?
   Looking at Java 10 or going to Java 11?
   Trying to understand the new feature release process?
   Worried about being able to use Java for free?
   Exploring “Java Platform Module System”?
   Trying out Jshell?
   Figuring out jlink?

38. IBM donated J9 to Eclipse
    because we believe it’s the
    best way to move Java
    forward
    • It offers a new place to start
    • As the future emerges we can see
    that Java needs to handle new
    technologies, new hardware
    • We can’t do it on our own. We have
    to do it together

    From now on – you and your application will
    have to change as well
    GPUs require you to think differently
    So will AI and Machine Learning.

    BTW – what does a server GPU look
    like?
    NVIDIA’s largest graphics card is the DGX-2
    It’s 2 petaflops, 512 gigabyte, 10 kilowatts
    It weighs 160 kg
    That’s as much as a fully grown panda.

50. Runtime Language
    Type Safe
    Bytecode: JIT Compiled
    Garbage Collected
    Concurrent Threaded
    All Platforms
    The JVM’s design
    characteristics allow
    us to imagine taking
    it to new places
    No other runtime
    environment comes
    close

    @DaschnerS
    The JVM design means that we can easily
    imagine running JVM languages on new forms of
    processors.
    The JVM can take the application model and transform it
    to the something suitable for the hardware
