The Eclipse Foundation Releases the 2024 Jakarta EE Developer Survey Report

October 2024 by The Eclipse Foundation

The Eclipse Foundation, one of the world’s largest open source software foundations, announced the availability of the 2024 Jakarta EE Developer Survey Report, the industry’s most prominent survey for technical insights into enterprise Java. The results showcase a significantly increased growth in the use of Jakarta EE and a growing interest in cloud native Java overall.

“The growing adoption of Jakarta EE and cloud native Java technologies shows that the enterprise Java ecosystem continues to evolve in line with modern development practices,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “With Jakarta EE 11 on the horizon, we are committed to delivering innovations that align with the evolving needs of the enterprise Java ecosystem.”

Now in its seventh year, the Jakarta EE Developer Survey continues to be a vital resource for understanding developer needs, preferences, and trends within the Java ecosystem. It also offers business leaders valuable insights into the evolving landscape of cloud native enterprise Java, helping them shape their strategies. Conducted from March 19 to May 31, 2024, the survey gathered insights from 1409 participants, providing a comprehensive snapshot of the current state of enterprise Java.

Key findings from the 2024 survey include:
● Spring/Spring Boot remains the leading Java framework for cloud native applications, while Jakarta EE and MicroProfile have seen notable growth.
● Jakarta EE adoption continues to rise, with 32% of respondents having migrated (up from 26% in 2023).
● Jakarta EE 10 adoption has doubled to 34%, indicating a strong shift towards newer versions, while usage of Java EE 8 has declined from 46% to 40%.
● Interest in aligning Jakarta EE with Java SE innovations, such as Records and Virtual Threads, has also grown (37%, up from 30% in 2023).
● The top five priorities for the Jakarta EE community include better support for Kubernetes, microservices, adapting to Java SE innovations, support for testing improvements, and faster innovation.

The Jakarta EE community welcomes contributions and participation from individuals and organisations alike. With the Jakarta EE Working Group hard at work on the upcoming Jakarta EE 11 release, which includes innovative cloud native features, there’s no better time to join this vibrant community and make your voice heard.
