Introduction
Master modern Java features from JDK 11 to present and transform your legacy applications in one intensive day.
Detailed description
Many organizations still use Java 8 or 11, even though support for these versions is ending soon. Upgrading to newer Java versions has many benefits, but understanding all the new features and how to use them effectively can be difficult.
This training gives a clear and simple overview of what’s new in Java from version 11 onwards. Led by Jens Knipper, a senior software engineer at OpenValue, you’ll learn important updates like Records, Sealed Classes, and Pattern Matching, as well as API improvements and performance upgrades.
The training combines explanations with real-world examples and extensive hands-on practice. You’ll spend significant time working on exercises and improving a legacy Spring application by refactoring and adding new features. This practical approach helps you confidently update your applications and take full advantage of the latest Java features.
Whether you’re working on older Java versions and planning to migrate soon, or you’ve recently upgraded and want to leverage the full potential of the new features, this training gives you the knowledge and hands-on experience needed.
Prerequisites
You’ll need solid Java development experience, particularly with Java 8 or 11. Familiarity with Spring Framework is helpful for the hands-on exercises.
Target audience
Developers working on older Java versions who want to migrate soon or developers who recently upgraded and want to leverage the full potential of the new features.
Learning goals
The training includes both theory and lots of hands-on practice. Participants will work on exercises and improve a legacy Spring application by refactoring and adding new features. By the end, they will have a clear understanding of how and where to use the new Java features effectively.
