Talk about Jakarta EE 11 highligt and the direction of Jakarta EE 12.

In an era dominated by Spring and Spring Boot, why should enterprises still choose Jakarta EE? Unlike frameworks tied to single implementations, Jakarta EE is specification-driven, offering vendor-neutrality, stability, and long-term compatibility. Modern Jakarta EE implementations like Open Liberty provide the convenience of lightweight deployments, blending the benefits of frameworks with standardized enterprise-grade capabilities essential for reliable IT systems.

In the life insurance industry, policy administration is ultra-long term, so certainty and robustness are critical. In addition, migration of legacy systems, personalization of services in the SoE area, improvement of user experience, and development of IT human resources for the future are also important issues today. In this context, I would like to briefly introduce how we have been utilizing Java/JakartaEE and what we expect in the future.

Since 2002, our company has been developing "POWER EGG" software that supports digitization of business operations using Java EE. This session will introduce the history of POWER EGG development and use cases of Jakarta EE.

Jakarta EE updates have improved security and maintainability from Java EE, and there is growing demand for migrating existing systems. However, migration involves many challenges such as compatibility issues and can be time-consuming and costly. This session will compare and contrast various migration tools that assist Jakarta EE migration, providing insights into selecting tools that can help shorten migration timelines and reduce costs.

This section describes the changes in Jakarta Data/Persistence in Jakarta EE 11.

This section will give a light explanation of the changes in Jakarta EE 11 other than Jakarta Data/Persistence.

Fujitsu has been involved in Java development for over 25 years. More recently, we became the only Japanese vendor to join the Eclipse Foundation as a Strategic Member, contributing to the advancement of Jakarta EE. We have been continuously providing Interstage as a product for over 20 years, and recently launched "Enterprise Application Platform," a product incorporating the latest Java technologies (Jakarta EE 11/JDK 21). We plan to continue incorporating the latest technologies into our products, supporting the stable operation of Java applications. In this session, we will introduce Fujitsu's commitment to Java, as well as the features of our products and our future plans.
