Payara 5.2022.5 is the FINAL release of Payara 5 Community. After this, Payara 5 Community will no longer receive bug fixes, updates or improvements, and will be superseded by Payara 6 Community and Jakarta EE 10. For all developers that are creating applications on Java EE 8/Jakarta EE 8, the move to Jakarta EE 10 will be a breaking change. We understand that you might want to keep using earlier Java EE / Jakarta EE versions for now. If you run production systems, we have options to help plan changes into your long term strategy. Don't worry, we have solutions that will keep you secure with Payara Platform and able to make upgrades to new versions of Jakarta EE when it is right for you - no sooner! Join this Q+A session to ask your questions and find out what your options are. You'll get answers from Payara Platform and Jakarta EE experts Luqman Saeed and Jon Weatherill, as well as Payara Senior Software Engineer Andrew Pielage.
Today, we launch '22 @jakartaee gifts for 2022!' In its last month, we celebrate the year's best content.
