The Payara Platform helps you modernize infrastructure and build microservices applications on cloud with your existing development team’s Java EE / Jakarta EE programming skills. Payara Micro with MicroProfile offers a migration path from your current architecture to a microservices architecture and the cloud-native capability of next-generation applications.
Jakarta EE runtimes, such as Payara Micro, are lightweight and suitable for microservices development. Read this guide to learn about microservices in terms that make sense to Java EE and Jakarta EE developers, including when a microservices architecture makes sense, and when it doesn’t.

The goal of MicroProfile is to optimise Java EE / Jakarta EE for a microservice architecture, however, some of the MicroProfile implementations are completely different ‘servers’, like the KumuluzEE server. Watch this presentation to learn how you can migrate easily from your favorite Java EE server to a MicroProfile implementation. Transform your Java EE application to a MicroProfile one using Thorntail, Liberty, Payara Micro and KumuluzEE.

MicroProfile allows you to build scalable applications easily and you can get a variety options for scaling if you add distributed data grids. We’ll analyze what’s possible and how to do it, demonstrating a microservices application based on Payara Micro, which assembles MicroProfile, Hazelcast and other useful tools into a single and easy to use package.
Watch this presentation to learn how to use a few simple tools to build a highly efficient, scalable, and robust system that can be evolved continuously to meet rapidly changing needs and increasing loads. Build lightweight, robust reactive systems efficiently with open source tools such as MicroProfile, RxJava, React.js. Add Kafka and Hazelcast and use Payara Micro to assemble it all together in almost no time.
Learn how to avoid common microservices headaches and discover widely-used design patterns and expert best practices. We’ll show you how these best practices can be implemented in Java EE / Jakarta EE and Payara Micro.

It's time for the October Payara Monthly Catch! It might be Halloween soon, but our monthly news roundup will protect you from the scary thought of missing out on anything from the world of Java, Jakarta EE, MicroProfile, and open source. We collate all the very best content as your TREAT for the month 🎃🦇👻 A key Java survey came out this month - theAzul State of Java Survey and Report. With 2000 respondents, it was interesting to learn that Java 11 was the most popular JDK version, and that 72% were using non-Oracle solutions. We were also pleased that 19% of respondents reported Payara as their application server of choice, beating GlassFish, TomEE & WildFly!
It's time for the September Payara Monthly Catch - our monthly news roundup from the world of Java, Jakarta EE, MicroProfile, and open source. The big news is: Java 21 is now out! This is the latest long-term support release of Java, so it will be supported in Payara Platform. Payara Community Server and Micro will run with Java 21 by mid-October, with Payara Enterprise supporting Java 21 by mid-December. Find our pick of great Java 21 content below, including our own articles on the subject, focusing on what it will mean for Jakarta EE users. Watch out for us next month at Devoxx Belgium! See below to meet our team at Devoxx and join our talk,Elementary Full-stack Development with Hypermedia and Java 21,we'll hope to see lots of you there. TheJakarta EE Developer Survey 2023also came out this month, make sure to read to find out the most used technologies and trends. Our CEO and Founder Steve Millidge commented: "The future looks bright for Jakarta EE and Payara, as we note with pride that the percentage of respondents using Payara has also increased!" And finally, free trials of our fully managed Jakarta EE cloud native application runtime, Payara Cloud, are in full swing!

HiJakarta EEandMicroProfilecommunity! It's time for the August Payara Monthly Catch. Java 21 is coming next month. That means - virtual threads! Project Panama! Sequenced collections! This month, we round up all the interesting articles about Java 21 and beyond, all in one place. See below for your reading list. We also have been working on applying features like Virtual Threads in a Jakarta EE context. It's also the month we launched a free trial of our fully managed Jakarta EE cloud native application runtime, Payara Cloud. You can now try it out for free, with 15 days available to you as a trial. Check it outhere.
In this webinar Jakarta EE experts Otavio Santana (Java Champion & Software Engineer) and Luqman Saeed (Payara Tech Writer) explore the power of Payara and Microservices to develop ultrafast applications, diving into live coding with Jakarta EE and MicroProfile, leveraging the latest specifications, such as Jakarta Data and Jakarta NoSQL. Additionally, they showcase the seamless integration of these technologies with the Microstream database, enabling lightning-fast persistence for your applications. Whether you are a seasoned developer or new to these technologies, this session will provide valuable insights and practical examples to accelerate your application development.
It's time for the July Payara Monthly Catch. This month's pick includes: Advice on contributing to open source Our guide to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning on Jakarta EE More deep dives into what you can look forward to in Java 21 Tips to combat bugs and vulnerabilities & more! We collate articles and videos from outside Payara - ourJakarta EEandMicroProfilecommunity - as well as sharing Payara's own guides and blogs, and news from our team of "Payarans" (we start them small 😉 )🐣⬇
Implementing the correct security patterns is a common challenge that most application developers and consultants can get wrong in even the most common of scenarios. Reinventing the wheel is a common pattern that DevOps engineers do when integrating security solutions inside their applications (authentication, password validation, identity management, correct storage of user data, etc.). Keycloak is an open-source identity management solution that focuses on offloading this burden from DevOps engineers, allowing them to focus on the business aspects of their applications and simplifying their solutions in the long run. This talk (see below!) from Fabio Turizo, Senior Engineer at Payara, will focus on the benefits of using such a service with an enterprise application, with a live demonstration of a small application that uses the Eclipse MicroProfile APIs to correctly integrate it with Keycloak by way of the OpenIDConnect standards.
