 * 12:00 PM - 12:45 PM
   
   * JAVA VIRTUAL THREADS
     
     Concurrent applications, those serving multiple independent application
     actions simultaneously, are the bread and butter of Java server-side
     programming. The thread has been Java’s primary unit of concurrency since
     its inception and is core to the entire Java platform. However, it can no
     longer efficiently represent a domain unit of concurrency. As a result,
     Java has seen a proliferation of libraries and frameworks that offer
     scalability while abandoning the thread as the unit of software
     concurrency—and, with it, the support of Java’s observability tooling. In
     this session, learn how Project Loom aims to reinstate the thread as an
     efficient unit of concurrency by adding a lightweight implementation of
     threads to the Java platform.

   * HANDS-ON LAB: INCONSISTENT DATA AND FINANCIAL LOSSES ARE A THING OF THE
     PAST: MAKING DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTIONS EASY WITH ORACLE TRANSACTION MANAGER
     FOR MICROSERVICES (DURATION 1HR, 30MINS)
     
     Do you worry about inconsistent data and financial losses? Oracle
     Transaction Manager for Microservices (MicroTx) can make distributed
     transactions easy. As organizations rush to adopt microservices
     architecture, they often run into problems associated with data consistency
     because each microservice typically has its own database or resource.
     MicroTx provides a transaction coordinator microservice to aid in
     maintaining consistency in the state of various databases participating in
     a transaction. In this lab, you’ll deploy and run two microservices-based
     apps built using Spring Boot and Helidon frameworks in a Kubernetes
     cluster. One of the apps uses the XA standard for strong consistency and
     the other uses Sagas or long-running actions (LRAs) for eventual
     consistency.  Learn how easy it is to enhance your existing applications
     with distributed transaction capabilities to ensure consistent data across
     microservices. Attendees must bring their own laptop to participate. This
     hands-on lab is only available to in-person attendees.

   * JSON DATA IMPROVEMENTS IN MYSQL 8.0
     
     The JSON data type was introduced in MySQL 5.7 and was dramatically
     improved in version 8.0. Chief among these changes was the introduction of
     JSON_TABLE() which temporarily transforms JSON data into structured data
     for processing with SQL commands such as window functions. With it, you
     gain the ability to test JSON data for required fields, range checks, and
     data type checks to ensure that bad data does not make it into your
     database instance. These and other MySQL 8.0 JSON features will be covered
     in this session.
