Open J Proxy 0.5.0-beta — The Caching and Read/Write Splitting Release

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 12:00:02 +0000

When we shipped 0.4.0-beta, the core value of Open J Proxy was already clear: a database control plane for Java applications that lets you scale dozens of application instances without overwhelming your database, because the server — not the application — owns and controls the real connection pools. What 0.5.0-beta adds on top of that foundation is two features that take the pressure off the database even further. The first is query result caching: the ability to answer repeated SELECT queries directly from memory without touching the database at all. The second is read/write splitting: the ability to automatically route reads to replica databases and leave the primary free for writes. Together, they advance OJP’s role as a full database control plane — governing not just connections but query results, routing decisions, and admission under load.

Don’t Miss: New AI Award & AI Highlights at JCON 2026

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 13:08:00 +0000

JCON EUROPE 2026 is about to kick off – and anticipation is building. The conference opens its doors today in Cologne, once again bringing together the international Java community. Just ahead of the event, new high-profile AI highlights have been announced, making it one of the most important meeting points for AI and Java experts in Europe.

Focus on AI: Highlights on Wednesday

A special focus is placed on AI on Wednesday, April 22. The day begins with a high-level keynote:

Take Control of GenAI — Without Compromising Your Data

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 11:50:02 +0000

Most GenAI demos look impressive — until data protection becomes a blocker.

Suddenly, you’re dealing with external APIs, unclear data flows, and compliance risks that slow everything down or stop projects entirely.

But what if you could build GenAI systems without any of that?

In this hands-on JCON EUROPE 2026 workshop, “Building Secure, Self-Hosted RAG Systems in Java”, you’ll explore how a fully local, self-hosted RAG system can be implemented — using Java and technologies you fully control.

A Big Screen Experience for Java Developers & Architects

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 12:00:02 +0000

JCON EUROPE 2026 | April 20–23, 2026 | Cinedom Cologne

Anyone talking about modern software development today can hardly avoid Java. Few technologies have shaped the enterprise world as sustainably, and few communities are as vibrant, diverse, and innovation-driven. This is exactly where JCON comes in: as a meeting point, a platform, and an experiential space for developers from all over the world. With participants from more than 70 countries, JCON has long since become an international gathering. Openness, knowledge sharing, and a strong sense of community remain at its core.

Caching and Beyond: Smarter Data Processing with Java - in 2 Hours

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 11:45:01 +0000

Many Java teams start simple — a single database, a straightforward architecture. But as systems evolve, so does the stack: caching layers to improve performance, search engines for faster queries, additional databases for specialized use cases, and now vector stores for AI-driven features.

What begins as optimization often turns into a fragmented landscape of technologies. The result: increasing complexity, higher infrastructure costs, and growing DevOps overhead.

The session “Caching and Beyond – Smarter Data Processing with Java” at JCON EUROPE takes a different approach. Instead of adding more tools, it focuses on simplifying data architectures — using a clean, Java-centric model built on open-source technologies.

Free Java Training Videos Now Available: From Fundamentals to Modern Frameworks

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 12:00:01 +0000

A comprehensive collection of Java training videos is now publicly available, offering developers valuable insights into modern backend technologies and frameworks.

The playlists cover key topics including Spring Boot, Quarkus, Helidon, Payara, EclipseStore, and MicroStream, providing both a strong foundation and deeper technical understanding. The content is designed for developers at all levels—from those starting with modern Java frameworks to experienced engineers looking to refine their expertise.

Structured Learning Across the Java Ecosystem

Rather than presenting isolated tutorials, the playlists follow a structured approach that helps developers build a coherent understanding of essential concepts such as dependency injection, microservices architecture, data persistence, and performance optimization.

Architect Your Own Experience: Creating Your Individual JCON 2026 Journey

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 12:00:03 +0000

The JCON EUROPE 2026, taking place from April 20 to 23 at the Cinedom Multiplex Cinema in Cologne, consistently focuses on a format that offers participants maximum flexibility. Instead of a fixed schedule, the individual design of one’s own conference experience takes center stage.

With a wide range of sessions, formats, and networking opportunities, visitors can decide for themselves which content, conversations, and contacts they want to focus on.

The central foundation for this is the JCON Schedule: participants can create their personal agenda, bookmark relevant sessions, and organize targeted 1:1 meetings with speakers or exhibitors. This turns the conference into something that is not just consumed, but actively shaped—depending on individual interests, projects, and professional priorities.

Open J Proxy 0.4.0-beta: Flexibility, Observability, and a Big Step Toward Production

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 12:00:01 +0000

By Rogerio Robetti – OJP Founder and Lead Developer

Every few releases a project crosses a threshold where the changes stop being incremental and start reshaping how the system can be used.
Open J Proxy 0.4.0-beta is one of those releases.

This version touches nearly every layer of OJP: integration with popular Java frameworks, observability, security, extensibility, and developer tooling. The result is a release that makes OJP easier to integrate, easier to operate, and far more flexible internally.

Open J Proxy v0.3.0-beta: The High-Availability, Multinode, Cross-Language Leap Forward

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 12:00:01 +0000

By Rogerio Robetti - OJP Founder and Lead Developer
\

The Open J Proxy (OJP) project has been busy—very busy. How busy? Try more than a hundred files changed, thousands of lines of code, and enough new distributed-systems machinery to make even seasoned architects clutch their coffee mugs in awe. If the previous v0.2.0-beta release was OJP discovering its superpowers, then v0.3.0-beta is OJP joining the Avengers.

In this article, we’ll walk through the most important enhancements, explain what they mean for Java developers, and crack a few jokes along the way (strictly at the expense of flaky servers).

Maintaining the IntelliJ “Save Actions” Plugin: A Community Effort to Keep Development Tools Up to Date

Wed, 12 Nov 2025 12:00:01 +0000

For many developers working with IntelliJ IDEA, the “Save Actions” plugin has long been a trusted companion for maintaining consistent and clean codebases. By automatically performing configurable actions on file save—such as optimizing imports, reformatting code, rearranging members, or applying small quick fixes—the plugin helps ensure that projects stay uniform across entire teams.

After the original development of “Save Actions” came to a halt several years ago, the plugin risked falling out of compatibility with newer IntelliJ versions. To prevent this, XDEV Software stepped in as the dedicated maintainer and continues to provide updates and maintenance releases through the JetBrains Marketplace. The goal has remained simple: to keep the plugin functional, compatible, and stable for the growing developer community that relies on it.

🚀 Rethinking the Way Java Talks to Databases

Every Java developer has fought the same battle at some point — an app scaling beautifully on the application side, only to hit a wall when the database can’t keep up. Connection storms, resource starvation, slow queries hogging pools, unresponsive services.
We’ve all been there.

Open J Proxy (OJP) was born to solve exactly that.

“How a nagging question, some downtime, and a touch of guilt led to an open-source project to make JDBC smarter.”

🚦 Chapter 1: The Seed of a Problem

The idea behind Open J Proxy (OJP) started growing in my mind way back in 2018 or 2019, during my time at a large credit card provider corporation. We were gearing up for a big shift: transitioning systems into microservices. Exciting stuff—but as we all know, excitement often walks hand-in-hand with complexity.
