Hi Adam,

1. why should I consider an application server like Wildfly nowadays since Quarkus is released? What are the benefits of still using an application server?
   The only thing I really noticed is, that the setup is similar to Thorntail and with Wildfly you get everything out of the box without configuration and selecting your dependencies.

2. Is there a non-vendor-specific way to define a datasource? I am trying to define a datasource on Wildfly and I only saw suggestions about modifying the standalone.xml or using jboss-cli.

Thank you

Do you prefer field injection over constructor injection? I saw your video on Helidon and thought of asking this question. Any insights would be highly appreciated.

Hi Adam

I am a student and still don't know very deep about Java. As learning for dependency injection, i saw that is done by using reflection. Now that i am looking at Quarkus, it says that DI is done at build time, no reflection is used that is why is faster. So what does this mean, I don't understand!

How should you secure /metrics endpoint from Microprofile, only auth users.

Thanks

Hi Adam,

I'd like to transition from "my home grown cdi config" which I've created based on your blog posts many years ago.

Injecting Properties Into Java EE Applications, Feb 09, 2016
http://www.adam-bien.com/roller/abien/entry/injecting_properties_into_java_ee

My implementation initialization process goes that way:

1. Read an ENV var named ENVIRONMENT and fail if it doesn't exists
2. Switch case on the ENVIRONMENT to load dedicated .properties file based on the actual environment using the Properties.load(InputStream).
3. Substitue each properties value containing ${ENV:<THE_ENV_VAR_TO_SUBSTITUTE>} to bridge environment variable.
4. Then inject configuration using @Inject @Config("properties.key.goes.here") ConfigValueType configValue where ConfigValueType has a dedicated @Produces ConfigValueType produceConfigValueType(InjectionPoint) method;

How I could replicate theses features but now based on top of the the microprofile config standards? and/or on top of smallrye-config?

Thank you very much and keep up the good work!

Hello Adam , i hope you're doing well.

I have two questions

1. We have some legacy modules with java 6 and we want to upgrade to java 11 , is there any good approach to do this migration to ensure that the modules remains work correctly with java 11 and how to detect changes that we have to do ?

2. Our client has the commercial version of OpenAm but they use it only for SSO , is it a good idea to use OpenAm in authorization as well in our project ?

Thanks && stay safe

Hi Adam,

is the @stateless annotation equivalent of @transactional and @RequestScoped ?
I tested that in Quarkus, but the problem is that for each request I have a new Instance.

I did not find the annotation @pooled

Thanks

Hi, Adam,

Good to know you are safe and coding on. No Slides no corona.

Please as regards table /column naming standards. What do you advise, camelCase or under_score and why? Are there any standards or best practices around this?

Thank you and stay safe :-)

Hi Adam,

Is there a way to consume multiple messages in parallel with a Post Processing acknowledgement strategy similar to how on MDBs you can control the number of sessions?

Hi Adam,

1. Any plans to publish the online version of the "MicroProfile with Quarkus" workshop?
2. What you are thinking about the [microprofile-]quarkus-native and [ANY_CLOUD_PLATFORM]-lambda use case?
   Kind regards, Alex
