Is the future of Java cloudy?

Java - it’s on billions of devices. We think it powers the world.  Others disagree.In this talk we’ll examine a few of the reasons why some developers believe Java is being left behind by younger (or at least different)  programming languages.  We’ll show where the claims make sense and debunk some of the more outrageous slander.  We know the future of Java includes a more polyglot world so we’ll help you understand with practical advice where Java shines today and where you might be better using something else.  We’ll also cover the challenges that all runtimes have in the new era of Cloud and how the Java community is leading the way in evolving Java into becoming the Cloud runtime of choice.This talk will help you become more informed when dealing with those inevitable language cage fights around the water cooler.  You’ll be able to refute the fake news and replace it with clear facts.   Vote for Java - you know it makes sense.Slides
