We need a simple README and instructions for building and running locally, as well contributing
Intermediate to advanced level talk on concurrency.
[The idea] Due to the pandemic restrictions none of us have been able to travel and visit most European cities, never mind our favourite conferences and communities. The idea is to have a week-long 'Road Trip' where we will virtually visit a different country each day, hear from the local communities, learn from the awesome local speakers about secure development and collect souvenirs along the way.
[The ask] I'm on the hunt for a few great communities to partner up with. We would cover all the logistics of getting the event together but would ask you to share it with your community (we could even be your September event), suggest a few awesome speakers to get involved and if you're avalible and keen to join us live on the day we'd love that.
I've added a few more details below but I'm keen to hear what you think?
Fancy getting involved? If you are, let's jump on a quick call so I can chat more about the details.
Looking forward to hearing back form you
Sam

Deploying to the cloud with GitHub Actions, feature flags, blue-green deployments, and AB testing
Developer teams are constantly under pressure to deliver new features and functionality without impacting core applications. In this session we’ll show how to add new application features reliably and securely without changing the core application or impacting core business activity. Highlights will include employing feature flags, AB Testing, and blue-green deployments using GitHub actions and GitHub repos, plus powerful cloud services based on serverless technologies, and managed container orchestration. All the demos and technologies used are open-source and free.
I was thinking it would be nice if we could add some config to a file that described an event e.g.
events:
- title: My Event
date: 01/12/2021
description: Lots of useful info
.
.
.
etc.
We could then use this to drive the Event page of the website but we could also use it to:
This might be something we can automate using GitHub actions
As per the title, find someone willing to give a talk on generics at an intermediate to advanced level.
Talk to share insights on actual steps, difficulties and lessons learned while migrating JDKs.
The idea is know more about: https://carlmastrangelo.com/blog/the-impossible-java-11
Organise talk for Java 19 release possibly with a dev advocate we have not had on before or not recently.
Talk on Java 17
@jonbullock to look for speakers who are giving talks like this at the moment
Ask @SwapnilGaikwad to repeat his very well received talk but as an online event for a wider audience to enjoy.
A place to discuss any ideas or suggestions the community has for the Manchester Java Community site.
JBang looks like a pretty cool tool which I've seen mentioned quite a lot but would love to learn more about how it works and some key use-cases.
The creator is https://twitter.com/maxandersen so probably makes sense to reach out to them initially.
Bio: Billy is a Java Developer Advocate with the Java Platform Group at Oracle. With over a decade of experience in Java, Billy brings a passion for helping developers find ways to reduce tedious work; such as project initiation, deployment, testing and validation, through automation and adopting the latest features and tools in the Java ecosystem. Outside of work Billy enjoys traveling, playing kickball, and cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs. Billy also co-organizes the Kansas City Java users group.
Title: How to be a Java Automated Testing Superstar
Short Pitch:
Automated testing in a crucial step in modern software development. A quality automated test suite enables rapid development and deployment practices like CI/CD by providing a stable quality check before an application is delivered to the world.
But how do you write a quality automated test suite in Java? In this presentation we will look at the practices and principles for writing reliable, accurate, and portable tests, and how they can be implemented using modern automated testing frameworks and libraries including; JUnit 5, Mockito, Test Containers, and others. With this knowledge you can become an automated testing superstar and help your team get to production faster!

Proposed talk from Michael Mirwaldt which was recently done at the Munich JUG.
Java streams are useful though. But they can also cause difficulties.
This talk is about advanced techniques for using Java Streams.
They are presented using examples.
Basic knowledge of Java Streams is required.

Simplifying Real-time Stream Processing Microservices at Scale on the Cloud
Real-time stream processing is growing exponentially in recent years, businesses need to gather insights from real-time data as soon as it’s generated. To do this, developers and software architects use various pipelines and tools to capture and process data in motion. Real-time stream processing has its own challenges such as testing and life-cycle management, scaling and performance, event time and late events, streaming fault tolerance, and processing guarantees. In this talk, I will address those challenges and demonstrate the best practices for real-time stream processing, from data ingestion to data processing with ultra-low latency at scale and at speed, using the Hazelcast platform. I will discuss how you can optimize your real-time streaming projects in the following areas: scalability, performance, failover, reliability, and data recovery.
Fawaz Ghali is a Principal Developer Advocate at Hazelcast with 20+ years of experience in software development, machine learning and real-time intelligent applications. He holds a PhD in Computer Science and has worked in the private sector as well as Academia as a Researcher and Senior Lecturer. He has published over 46 scientific papers in the fields of machine learning and data science. His strengths and skills lie within the fields of low latency applications, IoT & Edge, distributed systems and cloud technologies.
