Java Full-Stack Report May 2022
What’s This?
This is the Java Full-Stack Report for May 2022. It has technology recommendations, important releases, and news. My technology recommendations are partially based on measured popularity. This month: Spring Boot’s zero-day exploit gets worse, New Relic’s “State of Java” report, React and React Native surge in job ad mentions, and my InfoQ article series on native Java started to show.

Stand-Up
My InfoQ article series on native Java started to show, I talked at JAX in Germany and will talk at QCon Plus & Devoxx UK.
Technology Index
Popularity trends: React and React Native surge in job ad mentions while Kotlin lost 22% of its mentions over the last two months, Flutter lost 15%, and Postgres lost 10%. Also, see my recommendations for a JVM language, a database, a back-end framework, a web framework, and a mobile app framework.
Release Radar
Git, Quarkus, and IntelliJ had major releases in April 2022. OpenJDK 18/17/11/8, Spring Boot, Micronaut, and the Java support in VS Code had minor ones.
New & Noteworthy
Spring Boot’s zero-day exploit gets worse, New Relic’s “State of Java” report, native Java makes Java in the cloud cheaper, and Eclipse IDE moving to web & cloud.
