Java's four big projects are entering the home stretch: Amber, Panama, and Loom have already incubated, previewed, and even finalized some features, and Valhalla is on track to follow soon. Time to take a closer look at how...

  • Project Amber makes the language more expressive and ready for today's and tomorrow's problems
  • Project Panama cuts through the isthmus separating Java from native code
  • Project Loom enables hassle-free and efficient structured concurrency
  • Project Valhalla mends the rift in Java's type system and improves performance

After this talk, you will know what to expect from Java in the next few years.
