Out of the non-LTS Java versions in use, Java 14 is still the most popular (0.57 per cent, down from 0.95 per cent in 2022) with Java 15 a close second (0.44 per cent, down from 0.70 per cent in 2022). Java 14 is the most popular non-LTS version – Uptake of non-LTS Java versions remains extremely low compared to LTS versions in production with only 1.6 per cent of applications using non-LTS Java versions (down from 2.7 per cent in 2022).More than 9 per cent of applications are now using Java 17 in production (up from nearly 2 per cent in 2022), representing a 430 per cent growth rate in one year. Java 17 is poised to overtake Java 11 - While Java 11 has held the top spot for two years in a row, the adoption rate of Java 17 far exceeds what the developer world saw when Java 11 was introduced.With the explosion of AI (artificial intelligence), ML (machine learning), and cloud-based solutions, the time is right to unravel how Java is at the heart of innovation the world over,” said Ganesh Narasimhadevara, Principal Technologist, APJ, New Relic. Regardless of how you cut it, Java is pivotal to technological innovation simply because of its versatility-from e-commerce platforms, phone apps, social media, blockchain and more, its use cases are numerous. “India houses the world’s second-largest developer community in the world and Java continues to be their programming language of choice. There has never been a more exciting time to uncover and understand how Java is being used to support developers, with new version releases and the rise of containers,” he adds. “For Asia Pacific, home to the world’s largest concentration of developers, Java remains central to how enterprises of all sizes and sectors fuel innovation and growth, while delivering value and better customer experiences. With the release of Java 17, the platform remains the programming language of choice to support development and growth in the cloud,” said Peter Marelas, chief architect, APJ, New Relic. “Our study attests to Java’s enduring popularity with software developers in every industry and sector as the ecosystem evolves. While Java 8 and Java 11 remain the most-used versions, the report demonstrates the platform’s dominance in modern development and growth as improvements with Java 17 are increasingly embraced by developer communities globally. Following the recent release of Java 17, the report finds that the adoption rate for the latest long-term support (LTS) release has grown 430 per cent in one year. New Relic, the observability platform for engineers, released its second annual State of the Java Ecosystem Report to provide context and insights into the current state of the Java ecosystem.
