About this episode
Helidon 4.4 was released in April 2026 and stands out from other web frameworks by embracing new Java features as early as possible, particularly virtual threads and ahead-of-time computation. It is also aiming to become an OpenJDK project in the coming months.
In this "Input/Output" episode of the Inside Java Podcast, recorded during JavaOne 2026, Nicolai Parlog talks to Joe Di Pol, Lead Principal Platform Software Engineer at Oracle where he works on Helidon.
"Input/Output" is our new show, where we talk to people outside of OpenJDK to bring you their perspectives and insights into what's happening in the Java ecosystem.
