JWith JEP 403, Java 17 will strongly encapsulate the JDK internals. This is the latest step in a process that began in Java 9 with the modularization of the JDK. In this episode, Alan Bateman joins Chad to discuss the importance of strong encapsulation, the history, how this will affect your applications today, and what to do in order to prepare for it.

In this episode, David discusses with Gavin Bierman a new set of Java language features coming from Project Amber, i.e. Pattern Matching. In addition to `sealed classes` and `pattern matching for instanceof`, they are covering in great detail a new (and great!) JDK 17 preview feature: `pattern matching for switch`.

In this episode, David (remotely) sat down with Michael McMahon and Daniel Fuchs both from the Java Dublin engineering team to discuss some of the recent JDK network-related updates: from the HTTP/2 Client API (Java 11) and its updates in Java 16 to the new Java 16 Unix Domain Socket Channel API. There's even a small HTTP/3 sneak peek.

The release of Java 16 was a good reason to invite Mikael Vidstedt, Director of JVM Engineering, again into the show. In this episode, Chad and Mikael discuss some of the new JDK 16 features, the 6 months release cadence but also how some Valhalla initial bits are starting to gradually appear into the platform, and more!

Records are a standard and permanent Java language feature starting Java 16. This was a good occasion for David to discuss Records serialization with Julia Boes and Chris Hegarty who have been deeply involved in the recent serialization improvements. In this episode, you will see that the approach of serializing records drastically changes from the serialization of traditional classes.
