Abstract
Join Gil Tene, CTO of Azul Systems and member of the JCP Executive Committee, as he takes a look a where Java SE and the JDK are today (and where we've come from as a community).

Some of the areas this talk explores include:
- OpenJDK and the move of Java SE to open source
- The role of Java in the Big Data and Infrastructure components
- Unsafe
- JCP and OpenJDK
- Upcoming capabilities with JDK9, and what later versions may be adding
