With Java 9 done, then, the natural question is, What is next? As you might expect, the engineers at companies such as Oracle, Red Hat, IBM, Azul Systems, and others have been thinking about this question even while Java 9 was being planned and developed. While it is next to impossible to say what Java 10 will hold with any certainty (remember it took three major releases to get the module system done), we do have several items that are currently being discussed and designed, with the hope of shipping them in the next release. Over the next few pages, we'll explore some of these to get an early look at what our life as Java developers might be like in a couple of years.

Overview of this book
Java is a powerful language that has applications in a wide variety of fields. From playing games on your computer to performing banking transactions, Java is at the heart of everything.
The book starts by unveiling the new features of Java 9 and quickly walks you through the building blocks that form the basis of writing applications. There are 10 comprehensive projects in the book that will showcase the various features of Java 9. You will learn to build an email filter that separates spam messages from all your inboxes, a social media aggregator app that will help you efficiently track various feeds, and a microservice for a client/server note application, to name a few. The book covers various libraries and frameworks in these projects, and also introduces a few more frameworks that complement and extend the Java SDK.
Through the course of building applications, this book will not only help you get to grips with the various features of Java 9, but will also teach you how to design and prototype professional-grade applications with performance and security considerations.
