The Evolution of Enterprise Java with Jakarta EE 11 and Beyond
summary
Jakarta EE 11 is released with support for virtual threads, a new Jakarta Data spec (Spring‑Data‑like repository pattern plus JDQL), and roughly half the platform specs updated; core profile ships (Dec) while the full platform waits on a refactored TCK (milestone 4). APIs compile to Java 17 and run on Java 21/24; demos use Open Liberty and Liberty dev to show JVM‑aware thread behavior (Java 17 → platform thread, Java 24 → virtual thread) and a working dukes‑data repository (github: dukes-data, virtual-duke). E12 planning targets summer 2026.
