<h2>The Jakarta EE 9 Tools Vendor Datasheet is Now Available</h2>
<p>
With the Jakarta EE 9 General Availability (GA) release almost finalized, a growing number of
tools vendors are implementing the namespace change. Recently, the Jelastic PaaS team
<a href="https://jelastic.com/blog/jakartaee-9-release/">announced it is actively working to
support Jakarta EE 9 in its cloud platform</a>.
</p>
<p>To help these vendors make the transition, the Jakarta EE community has developed a datasheet
summarizing the namespace migration challenge and opportunity.</p>
<p>Tools vendors that take advantage of Jakarta EE 9 to implement the new namespace can migrate
faster and more cost effectively than those who wait until the Jakarta EE 10 release as Jakarta EE
10 will also include new features, enhancements, and other major changes.</p>
<p>The datasheet describes:</p>
<ul>
<li>The key elements of the Jakarta EE 9 release for tools vendors</li>
<li>Vendor implementation roadmaps</li>
<li>The list of affected packages</li>
</ul>
<p>

<h2>IoT Developer Survey Results are Coming Soon</h2>
<p>The 2020 IoT Developer Survey closed on July 10 so watch for the results to be available.</p>
<p>This is the first year the survey included questions about how developers are incorporating edge
computing technologies into their IoT solutions. With the next generation of IoT applications
extending to the network edge, and strong momentum in edge technologies at the Eclipse Foundation,
the survey results will be interesting and insightful.</p>
<p>With more than 1,600 survey responses, the results will give everyone in the IoT ecosystem
&mdash; from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), software vendors, and hardware manufacturers
to service providers, enterprises, and individual developers &mdash; a better understanding of the
latest IoT solutions and service development trends. They&rsquo;ll also have a clear view of how
these trends impact their strategies and businesses.</p>
