Spring Framework 5.0 on JDK 8 & 9
Juergen Hoeller, Pivotal
JĂĽrgen is a legendary person, co-founder of the Spring Framework project and its leader at the moment. His presentation at the conference was divided into two reports. The first report opened the conference, the second was at the end of the second day.
The first report was about the features of support for version 5 of the JDK Framework 8 and 9. The framework illustrated the common compatibility issues that had to be faced. Gave recommendations on how to adapt your own applications to Java 9 taking into account the specifics of Spring .
When demonstrating a contribution to the Spring code, igor_suhorukov was mentioned on one of the slides.
Fighting Russian Hackers with Kafka Streams and Firehose API
Victor Gamov and Baruh Sadogursky
The joint sparkling report of the stars of the conference (and debriefing ) Victor and Baruch. The subjects were taken products Bintray (implements the Firehose API ) and Apache Kafka . With the help of the latter, streaming data were processed and certain events that could expose hackers were searched. The code for the displayed project is available on GitHub . Baruch and Victor were, as always, beautiful.
How to make a profiler built into the JVM that is not afraid of AOT compilation?
Ivan Uglyansky, Excelsior LLC
At the conferences held by the JUG.ru Group , one more representative of Excelsior LLC (except Nikita Lipsky), Ivan Uglyansky , appeared. Like Nikita, Ivan actively writes to the Excelsior JET Team Blog , developing the Excelsior JET product itself.
The report was about the peculiarities of writing a JVM profiler that can perform its functions with AOT (Ahead-of-Time) compilation. The available options were analyzed in detail, their applicability on various platforms ( Windows , Linux , macOS ). The report achieved a reasonable balance between the hardcore nature of the topic and the clarity of its conference participants.
Spring Boot and Xtend: Black Magic Session Exposing
Andrei Kogun, CROC
Andrei’s habitual role, to which, probably, everyone is already accustomed is the leader of the Moscow group of Java developers jug.msk.ru , which he has been meeting since December 2012 with the support of CROC .

In the report, the horizons of students accustomed to new languages ​​such as Kotlin were expanded with a demonstration of Spring Boot- based applications using Xtend . Xtend is a statically typed Java based language with a less verbose syntax. Unfortunately, the working plug-in is now available only for Eclipse , but there is hope for the correction of the existing one or the appearance of a new plug-in for IntelliJ IDEA .
Refactoring your code to Java 9 modules
Rabea Gransberger, MEKOS
The report is of an applied nature - refactoring the existing monolithic application into a modular structure, the support of which appeared in Java 9 . It largely echoes the report of the next day “Designing for modularity with Java modules”. Contains an enumeration of specific steps for dividing into modules with an indication of possible pitfalls.
Big data in modern biology
Mikhail Gelfand, HSE
It has already become a tradition for the final report of one of the days to invite an interesting speaker from a completely different subject area. This time, this was Mikhail Gelfand - Doctor of Biological Sciences and Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences.
A completely brain-exploding report (but this does not become less interesting) in no way by non-specialists in the subject area.
"What? Where? When? ”With Mikhail Skipsky
Sports tournament "What? Where? When? ”Was held by Mikhail Skipsky (a player from the team of Balash Kasumov of the television game“ What? Where? When? ”). Those who wished to pre-register, united in teams of 6 people.
