"Chad Arimura, vice president of developer relations for Oracle, said this edition of Java makes it clear that Java will continue to be a de facto enterprise standard for building both existing and next-generation applications. For example, Java 25 provides early access to a vector application programming interface (API) to optimize computations as they are compiled at runtime. That capability will improve the performance of AI inference engines running on any supported processor architecture, noted Arimua."
"At the same time, there is an updated preview of a capability that makes Java more uniform and expressive to make it simpler for AI applications to apply pattern matching, along with an update to a preview that simplifies concurrent programming by treating groups of related tasks running in different threads as a single unit of work. Application developers can now also share immutable data within and across threads in addition to accessing a preview of an API for stable values, which are objects that hold immutable data. Application developers can now also"
"Moving beyond AI, Java 25 also has an API for key derivation functions, which are cryptographic algorithms for deriving additional keys from a secret key and other data. This provides a necessary building block for the support of hybrid public key encryption, which helps enable a smooth transition to quantum-safe encryption. There is also a preview of an API for encoding cryptographic objects."
Java 25 is available and will receive eight years of long-term support. The release provides early access to a vector API that optimizes computations at runtime to improve AI inference performance across supported processor architectures. Updated previews make pattern matching more uniform and expressive, simplify concurrent programming by treating related threaded tasks as single units of work, and enable sharing of immutable data plus access to a preview API for stable values. Java 25 also introduces an API for key derivation functions and a preview for encoding cryptographic objects to support hybrid public-key and quantum-safe encryption.
