All Things Java at VoxxedDays Amsterdam (#69)
On April 3rd, the first VoxxedDays event in Amsterdam took place. VoxxedDays are tech events organized by local community groups, with support from the Devoxx team. Geertjan Wielenga brought along a camera and microphone and spoke with many of the attendees.This is the first Foojay podcast ever to feature more than 20 guests! Geertjan asked the same two questions to many of conference visitors: “Tell us who you are and what excites you about the technology landscape?” and “What are two tips or insights you’d like to share?”As you might expect, there's a lot of talk about AI and machine learning, but you’ll also hear about new Java features, profiling, open source, security, code reviews, and much more!00:00 Introduction00:33 Ko Turk: VoxxedDays organizationhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ko-turk-b271b929/ 01:34 Stephan Janssen: F ounder of Devoxx and VoxxedDayshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanjanssen/ 05:27 Lutske de Leeuw: Important new features in Javahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/lutske/ 06:25 Johannes Bechberger: Profiling and instrumentationhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/johannes-bechberger/ 07:03 Christian Tzolov: Spring AI and MCPhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/tzolov/ 09:01 Tom Cools: AI, machine learning, mathematical optimization, and all the opportunities in this field.https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-cools-17547548/ 11:30 Eric-Wubbo Lameijer: Automated code analysishttps://www.linkedin.com/in/eric-wubbo-lameijer-64303013/ 13:02 Abraham van de Vyver: GenAI, impact on job and opensource projectshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/a5r/ 15:01 Soham Dasgupta: Combining cloud native applications with AI, GenAIhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dasguptasoham/ 17:05 Josh Long: AI and its impact, MCP, role of junior developershttps://www.linkedin.com/in/joshlong/ 21:33 Susanne Pieterse: RAG and AI, vector search, VoxxedDays community reviewerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/susannepieterse/ 23:22 Brian Vermeer: Security on using LLMs and what can possibly go wrong?https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianvermeer/ 24:47 Anton de Ruiter: Migrating the Dutch tax system to microservices and containershttps://www.linkedin.com/in/antonderuiter/ 25:32 Rafael de Lio: Redis, real-time databaseshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/raphaeldelio/ 27:55 Jonathan Stronkhorst: Spring AIhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-stronkhorst/ 28:29 Jos Roseboom: Encapsulation with Spring Modulithhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jos-roseboom-75508b11/ 29:18 Soroosh Khodami: Software supply chain securityhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/sorooshkhodami/ 30:33 Artem Makarov: Applied AI, real use cases after the hypehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/artemy/ 31:46 Kaya Weers: Learning thanks to the communityhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kayaweers/ 35:27 Eddy Vos: Devoxx4Kids Foundation, volunteers learning children to codehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/eddyvos/ 38:00 Paco van Beckhoven: Improving the code review and pull request process with errorprone and openrewritehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/pacovanbeckhoven/ 39:30 Hanno Embregts: Using AI and GenAI in a good wayhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hannotify/ 41:14 Martijn van Iersel: Learning through gamification, internationalization of code, unicodehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/martijn-van-iersel-2314464/ 43:54 Charl Fasching: Impact of AI on Dev and DevOpshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/charl-fasching-77843288/ 47:43 Joris Kuipers: Experimenting with AI to integrate in applications, learning at conferenceshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jkuipers/ 48:48 Conclusion
