If you’ve ever wished that building modern, scalable, distributed cloud-based apps could be made as easy as building basic desktop or client-server apps used to be, you are not alone.If only there was a new programming language that learned lessons from programming languages like Java, and leveraged best practices from deploying applications and services in the cloud.But there is.First showcased at CloudNative London 2019, the Ecstasy language has been co-created by Cameron Purdy and Gene Gleyzer, co-founders of Tangosol, a maker of in-memory Java-based data grid software, with exactly this goal in mind. Ecstasy is a new, strongly typed, modular, general-purpose, programming language.Alongside the language itself, the Ecstasy project comprises a new portable binary format and instruction set, and a new managed runtime that is designed to support JIT, AOT, and adaptive compilation similar to Java.Speaker: Cameron Purdy is an 11x developer, co-creator of the Ecstasy programming language, and co-author of Oracle Coherence. Cameron is co-founder and CEO of xqiz.it. Previously, he was co-founder and CEO of Tangosol, acquired by Oracle, where he was the Senior Vice President for Enterprise Java, WebLogic, Coherence, Traffic Director, and Exalogic products. Cameron is a contributor to the Java Language and Virtual Machine specifications, author of the Portable Object Format (POF) specification, and author of a plethora of patents on distributed computing and data management.***** Extra *****In addition to Cameron Purdy&#x27;s talk, Allard Buijze , CTO &amp; Founder at AxonIQ, will give a brief presentation entitled &quot;Location Transparency and how that makes microservices more flexible.&quot;Photo by An Tran on Unsplash
