+
+The Eclipse Foundation today announced during the JakartaOne Livestream virtual conference the release of the [Jakarta EE 8](https://jakarta.ee/release/8/) Full Platform and Web Profile specifications and related Technology Compatibility Kits (TCKs). This release provides a new baseline for the evolution and innovation of enterprise Java technologies under an open, vendor-neutral, community-driven process. As a result, Java vendors, developers, and customers alike now have a foundation for migrating mission-critical Java EE applications and workloads to a standard enterprise Java stack for a cloud native world. This release represents a major milestone for the world’s leading innovators in cloud native Java, including Fujitsu, IBM, Oracle, Payara, Red Hat, Tomitribe, and dedicated independent community members who are collaborating at the Eclipse Foundation to advance Jakarta EE, the successor to Java EE.
+
+“It’s difficult to overstate the significance of this release,” said Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation. “There are tens of thousands of companies with strategic investments in Java EE and over 10 million Java developers globally. The finalization of the Jakarta EE 8 specifications means that the transition of Java EE to our new open, vendor-neutral, and community-based process has been completed, and paves the way for an entirely new era in Java innovation for enterprise and cloud workloads. Congratulations and thanks to all of the committers, project leads, and Foundation staff that made delivering the Jakarta EE 8 specifications possible.”
+
+In addition to the release of the Jakarta EE 8 specifications, the Eclipse Foundation is announcing the certification of Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 as an open source compatible implementation of the Jakarta EE 8 Platform. Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 is fully tested under the open source licensed Jakarta EE 8 Technology Compatibility Kits (TCKs) for the Full Platform and Web Profiles. Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 is available for download [here](https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish/downloads).
+
+Accompanying this release, IBM has announced that [Open Liberty](https://openliberty.io/) has been fully certified as a compatible implementation of the Jakarta EE 8 profiles. All of the vendors in the [Jakarta EE Working Group](https://jakarta.ee/) intend to certify their Java EE 8 compatible implementations as Jakarta EE 8 compatible.
+
+With upwards of 90 percent of the FORTUNE 500 running enterprise Java apps in production, the Jakarta EE 8 specifications give new life to this massive installed base. The specifications are fully compatible with Java EE 8 specifications and include the same APIs and Javadoc using the same programming model they have been using for many years. The Jakarta EE 8 TCKs are based on, and fully compatible with all Java EE 8 TCKs. Jakarta EE 8 will not require any changes to Java EE 8 applications or their use of existing APIs. The specifications were developed under the [Jakarta EE Specification Process](https://jakarta.ee/about/jesp/) and [Eclipse Development Process](https://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/), which are the open, community-driven successors to the Java Community Process (JCP) for Java EE.
+
+"I am very excited for the Jakarta EE community as this release demonstrates the strength and breadth of support for the successor to Java EE technologies,” said Todd Moore, IBM’s vice president, Open Technology, IBM Developer and Developer Advocacy. “We've already certified [Open Liberty](https://openliberty.io/) as a Jakarta EE compatible implementation and look forward to the rapid growth of a standard, open source, cloud native platform at the Eclipse Foundation through the Jakarta EE and MicroProfile projects."
+
+“Red Hat was one of the founding members of Jakarta EE. We continue to believe that it is incredibly important to move Java EE 8 to the Eclipse Foundation because this gives the wider enterprise Java community a solid foundation upon which they can build their future cloud native applications,” said Mark Little, vice president, engineering at Red Hat. “Having Jakarta EE 8 fully compatible with Java EE 8 is likewise important so that existing Java EE 8 applications and developers can be confident they can move their applications seamlessly to the Eclipse Foundation effort.”
+
+The Eclipse Foundation is actively soliciting new members for the Jakarta EE Working Group and encourages enterprises (particularly those involved in the JCP for Java EE) to become members. Interested parties can learn more about the benefits and advantages of membership, and join the Working Group [here](https://jakarta.ee/membership/).
+
+Members and non-members alike can also stay abreast of new developments with Jakarta EE [here](https://jakarta.ee/).
+
+In order to better facilitate industry understanding of Jakarta EE specifically and cloud native Java overall, the Eclipse Foundation is also using this occasion to launch a new eBook called “Fulfilling the Vision for Open Source, Cloud Native Java.” This new eBook explores what cloud native Java is, why it matters so much to so many people, and provides the community’s perspective of where Jakarta EE technologies are headed. The new eBook can be downloaded [here](https://jakarta-4753786.hs-sites.com/cloud-native-java-eBook).
+
+The Eclipse Foundation is also showcasing Jakarta EE 8 in booth #3228 at the Oracle Code One conference and tradeshow, taking place September 16-19 at Moscone Center in San Francisco, California, United States.
+
+## Quotes from Jakarta EE Working Group Members 
+
+### Fujitsu
+
+“Fujitsu is excited to release Jakarta EE 8, which is the first open source Jakarta EE developed specification in Eclipse and is fully compatible with the Java EE 8 specifications,” said Takashi Fujiwara, SVP, Head of Fujitsu’s Software Business Unit. “This will accelerate the Jakarta EE and cloud native technologies. We continue to work with the Java community and make efforts to develop the Java ecosystem by contributing to Eclipse GlassFish and Jakarta EE."
+
+### IBM
+
+"I am very excited for the Jakarta EE community as this release demonstrates the strength and breadth of support for the successor to Java EE technologies,” said Todd Moore, IBM’s vice president, Open Technology, IBM Developer and Developer Advocacy. “We've already certified Open Liberty as a Jakarta EE compatible implementation and look forward to the rapid growth of a standard, open source, cloud native platform at the Eclipse Foundation through the Jakarta EE and MicroProfile projects."
+
+### Payara
+
+“The Payara Team is truly excited about the release of Jakarta EE 8,” said Steve Millidge, founder of Payara. “First, it is the culmination of a lot of work by all the companies and community involved in migrating the code, IP, TCKs and specifications over to the Eclipse Foundation. Second, it marks the start of the open evolution and modernisation of all the Jakarta EE APIs in an open, inclusive and neutral fashion for the benefit of all users. The Payara Team will be at the forefront of driving this evolution and ensuring that the Payara Platform is a Compatible Implementation of Jakarta EE 8 and beyond. “
+
+### Oracle
+
+"We're extremely pleased that Jakarta EE 8 has been released,” said Tom Snyder, vice president of Oracle Software Development. “This represents the culmination of a great deal of work by the entire Jakarta EE community, including Oracle, and we appreciate everyone's contributions. Oracle is working on delivery of a Java EE 8 and Jakarta EE 8 compatible WebLogic Server implementation, and we are looking forward to working with the community to evolve Jakarta EE for the future."
+
+### Red Hat
+
+“Red Hat was one of the founding members of Jakarta EE. We continue to believe that it is incredibly important to move Java EE 8 to the Eclipse Foundation because this gives the wider enterprise Java community a solid foundation upon which they can build their future cloud native applications,” said Mark Little, vice president, engineering at Red Hat. “Having Jakarta EE 8 fully compatible with Java EE 8 is likewise important so that existing Java EE 8 applications and developers can be confident they can move their applications seamlessly to the Eclipse Foundation effort.”
+
+### Tomitribe
+
+“In 20 years working in open source and Java standards I've never seen such a truly diverse and equally shared effort as that required to ship Jakarta EE 8,” said David Blevins, Founder and CEO of Tomitribe. “Source code has been donated, but what emerged is a community that bravely accepts change, innovates open processes and repeatedly choses shared victory over individual success. When we look back in 10 years at all we've accomplished in Jakarta, everyone will agree this was the singular moment in time that shaped our future.”
