Jakarta EE: The Future of Cloud Native Java is Open!
summary
Java EE is relicensed and hosted at the Eclipse Foundation as Jakarta EE with 39 projects and about 99 git repositories, contributing roughly 15–20% of Eclipse community activity and a 30% spike in IP work in 2018. The plan keeps Java EE 8 compatibility (Jakarta EE 8), publishes open TCKs, and delivers Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 RC plus nightly builds as a reference implementation path. A vendor‑neutral working group manages brand, roadmap and a new Eclipse specification process (v1.1) aiming for faster, code‑first evolution.
