Oracle announced the latest version of the programming language and development platform, Java 23 (Oracle JDK 23).
Java 23 delivers improvements and enhancements to the Java language, runtime, libraries, and the tools included in the Java Development Kit (JDK).
The features in the Java 23 release are a result of continuous close collaboration between Oracle and other members of the worldwide Java developer community via OpenJDK and the Java Community Process (JCP).
“Java continues to evolve to support organizations” increasingly diverse modern application development needs,” said Arnal Dayaratna, research vice president of software development at IDC.” “The new release enables developers to expand their toolset and increase their productivity, helping them build and deliver applications that leverage the power of groundbreaking technologies such as AI. By delivering innovative new capabilities every six months, Java continues to help development teams add significant value to their organizations.”
Java 23 delivers thousands of improvements to help developers increase productivity and drive innovation, while enhancements to the platform’s performance, stability, and security help organizations accelerate business growth.
In addition to the new enhancements and features for developers, Java 23 provides significant value to their organizations. For example, Java 23 is supported by the recent GA of Java Management Service (JMS) 9.0, an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) native service that provides a unified console and dashboard to help organizations manage Java runtimes and applications on-premises or in any cloud.
“The new features in Java 23 help developers across all levels of expertise increase their productivity and streamline the development of high-performing, secure, and scalable applications,” said Georges Saab, senior vice president of Oracle Java Platform and chair, OpenJDK governing board.
“With a wide range of new features and tools designed to help developers build and deliver applications faster and more efficiently, Java 23 helps development teams and their organizations boost innovation and drive increased business growth,” he added.
Java delivers increased performance, efficiency, cost savings, and innovation when deployed on OCI, which is one of the first hyperscale clouds to support Java 23.
