## Resource

In another friendly conversation, Anne and Holly Cummins of IBM discuss IBM's cloud native platform Quarkus and why it is so, so important right now. You've got to be able to turn it off and on again for operatioal efficiency, to take any advantage of the cloud and - vitally - for security because in the new world, patches have to be applied rapidly. Anne and Holly, Java champion, explore the evolution of Java from its initial flexible, runtime-centric design to a modern cloud-native, operationally efficient platform. Holly shares insights into how the shift to immutable, start-up friendly environments like Quarkus is transforming how we build and deploy Java applications in the era of cloud computing, AI, and sustainability. #Java #Javasoftware #security #operationalefficiency #ai #podcast Transcript
