<h2>IoT Developer Survey Results Reveal Interesting Trends</h2>

<p>More than 1,650 individuals from a broad range of industries and organizations around the globe responded to the 2020 IoT Developer Survey.</p>

<p>The results reveal a number of interesting trends that will affect all IoT and edge ecosystem players. They also help ensure the&nbsp;<a href="https://iot.eclipse.org/">Eclipse IoT Working Group</a> and the&nbsp;<a href="https://edgenative.eclipse.org/">Eclipse Edge Native Working Group</a> continue to focus on developers&rsquo; top priorities for cloud-to-edge IoT solution development.</p>

<p>This year&rsquo;s survey results showed that:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Smart agriculture is the new industry focus area, and last year&rsquo;s top industry focus, home automation, dropped significantly in ranking</li>
	<li>Artificial intelligence is the top choice for edge computing workloads, but control logic, data exchange, and sensor fusion are not far behind</li>
	<li>Open source software is very heavily used in IoT and edge solution development</li>
</ul>

<p>For insight into the top IoT developer concerns, widely used security techniques, popular programming languages, and other trends, download the complete survey results&nbsp;<a href="https://outreach.eclipse.foundation/eclipse-iot-developer-survey-2020">here</a>.</p>

<h2>Coming Soon! Jakarta EE 9 Release: December 8th</h2>

<p>The Jakarta EE 9 General Availability release targeted for December 8 is on track with the final&nbsp;<a href="https://jakarta.ee/specifications/">Jakarta EE 9 specifications</a> about to start the ballot process.</p>

<p>The ballot process follows the&nbsp;<a href="https://jakarta.ee/about/jesp/">Jakarta EE Specification Process (JESP)</a>. To release Jakarta EE 9, the&nbsp;<a href="https://jakarta.ee/committees/specification/operations/">Jakarta EE Specification Committee</a> must review all specifications to verify that one&nbsp;<a href="https://jakarta.ee/compatibility/">compatible product</a> successfully implements the Jakarta EE 9 APIs. As in Jakarta EE 8, that product is the&nbsp;<a href="https://glassfish.org/">Eclipse GlassFish application server</a>.</p>
