Autumn Kiev for two days will become the center of gravity for Java specialists - on October 14-15,JavaDay 2016Java-conference will be held here, which is organized by the Ukrainian community of developers Java User Group Ukraine .
JavaRush is an information partner of this conference, so we decided to tell what interesting the organizers prepared for the active participants of the Java community and what technological trends are put at the head of the event. ')
JavaDay sixth - how it will be
Last year's 5th anniversary conference pleased the participants with 5 tracks with interesting sessions from 40 speakers . This year, the event will repeat the success of JavaDay 2015 , which ranked second among the IT events in Ukraine . The conference especially the event will please those who want to get as many insights as possible.
The purpose of the conference is to give the community the opportunity to effectively learn and to communicate with colleagues. The conference center “Parkovy” , where the event will take place, will allow developers and speakers to comfortably achieve both goals.
Those who are lucky enough to visit JavaDay at least once, are well aware that in addition to
discover the best and newest methods in working with java
chat with leading international and Ukrainian Java-stars
make new interesting and useful acquaintances
become part of the java community
All participants of the conference will have a lot of unexpected and pleasant surprises from the partners of the event, an unforgettable atmosphere and an unconventional approach to the organization .
For example, last year the entire series of events was devoted to the 20th anniversary of Java and all participants in JavaDay in Kiev had an incredible opportunity to ask a question personally to James Gosling, who spoke online with conference participants.

The organizers form an interesting and rich program of the event. At the moment (September 1) it is formed by 98%.
A distinctive feature of the conference this year will be the participation of a group of speakers from Pivotal, known for its Spring Framework and the ecosystem of products around it. We tried to company representatives told about the most popular products to date.
