Highlights From JavaOne

It was quite a week at JavaOne here in San Francisco, what with recent announcements on OpenJDK, and Java FX. Hyperic had a booth on the floor, a pod in the .orgZone, and a pod and talk at CommunityOne.

• Charles Lee, Hyperic VP of Engineering, gave a talk on Monday at CommunityOne about how we managed to remove data bottlenecks and scale our PostgreSQL usage to accomodate our huge data aggregation.
• Heather and I hung out at our CommunityOne pod, where we would assault unsuspecting passersby. Ok, not really, but we enjoyed talking to attendees.
• All sorts of things happened in the Hyperic booth on the main JavaOne floor:
  • We gave away a Wii!
  • Note to self: Whenever I want to enter a contest, make sure to fill out the “Title” field as “Winner”:
• And now for the wily .orgZone…
  • John Sachs, doing online support, oblivious to the camera:
  • A couple of… uh… wild and crazy guys:
• Javier shares a laugh with Michael Cote and James Governor of Redmonk (more on that later – with video!):

And that’s it for now… I’ll post some videos and more photos soon.
