The Java programming language has adapted to a changing technology landscape for more than 25 years. AWS Java Academy is a set of content that allows you to learn Java from scratch in a cloud native way or update your Java knowledge to develop modern applications using different cloud architectures including serverless. You will find step by step instructions to create Java applications on Quarkus, Spring, Micronaut using containers or serverless functions.

This full-day workshop provides Java developers the skills to build, deploy and manage cloud-native applications on AWS. Attendees will learn how to package and run Java apps in EC2, Docker containers, optimize them for the cloud, and deploy them on services like AWS App Runner, Amazon ECS, and Amazon EKS; it also covers migrating traditional Java apps to serverless architectures using AWS Lambda and cold start optimization techniques. The workshop highlights modern development workflows including observability, CI/CD, and leveraging AWS Graviton processors for improved price-performance; throughout hands-on exercises, developers will gain practical experience with cloud-native Java development on AWS.
