After https://developer.oracle.com/?utm_content=inline-mention delivered https://jdk.java.net/19/ recently, https://www.linkedin.com/in/siritter/?originalSubdomain=uk, Deputy CTO of https://www.azul.com/, met with The New Stack to share some technical insight on the features of the release — also known as Java Development Kit (JDK) 19 — and how it differs from the older versions. https://thenewstack.io/is-java-ready-for-cloud-native-computing/ is a key contributor to the https://thenewstack.io/pivotal-throws-its-weight-behind-openjdk-with-spring-runtime/ project and the provider of the https://www.azul.com/downloads/?package=jdk distribution.

JDK 19 continues the steady pace of development for the Java platform, the tenth release since the switch to a time-based, six-month release cadence.

All the JDK Enhancement Proposals (JEPs) included with JDK 19 (excluding JEP 422 Linux/RISC-V port) are either preview features or incubator modules.

Rather than mapping each JVM [https://thenewstack.io/this-week-in-programming-microsoft-jumps-back-into-java-with-openjdk-build-preview/] thread to an operating system (OS) thread, multiple JVM threads can share an OS thread.
