It\u2019s exciting to see the Java ecosystem embracing this community-led transition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Conducted from March 18 to June 5, 2025, the survey collected insights from more than 1700 participants, a 20% increase over 2024, making it one of the most comprehensive community-driven views into the enterprise Java ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key findings from the 2025 Jakarta EE Developer Survey Report:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><strong>Jakarta EE momentum grows:<\/strong> Jakarta EE adoption has surpassed Spring for the first time, with 58% of respondents using Jakarta EE compared to 56% for Spring. This marks a significant milestone and confirms Jakarta EE\u2019s position as the leading Java framework for building cloud native applications. The data reflects the growing recognition of Jakarta EE\u2019s foundational role in modern enterprise Java.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jakarta EE 11 is being rapidly adopted by the community:<\/strong> Jakarta EE 11 has already been adopted by 18% of respondents. This early traction shows strong interest across regions and company sizes. The community\u2019s flexible, staged release model, which provides early access to Core and Web Profiles, is helping developers move away from older Java EE versions and adopt new innovations more quickly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Java version shifts:<\/strong> Adoption of Java 21 jumped to 43%, up from 30% in 2024. Java 17 and Java 8 both saw declines, while Java 11 experienced a rebound and now stands at 37%. The data suggests that developers are becoming more willing to adopt newer Java versions shortly after release<strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Cloud migration strategies: <\/strong>Lift-and-shift remains the leading approach (22%), but teams are also weighing a variety of modernization paths. Some plan to gradually migrate with microservices (14%), others are modernizing applications to leverage cloud features (14%), while a portion are already fully cloud-based (14%). At the same time, uncertainty is growing, with 20% of developers still unsure about their strategy.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom:8pt;\"><strong>Community priorities:<\/strong> Cloud native readiness and faster specification adoption top the agenda, alongside steady interest in innovation and Java SE alignment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>A call to the community<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Jakarta EE Developer Survey remains a vital resource for developers, architects, and business leaders, offering a clear view into current trends and future directions for enterprise Java.<\/p>\n<p>The Jakarta EE community welcomes contributions and participation from individuals and organisations alike.
