Hi Ken,

Congrats on the book. Do you think Rust will eventually replace C/C++ for most system-level type projects? Thanks.

Hi Rosemary,

I apologize for my ignorance. This is the first time I've ever heard about Infrastructure as Code. I was wondering if you could give a high level explanation behind the concept. Thank you.

Thank you. I get it now.

I changed my profile and background picture yesterday, but it's just sitting there blank. Is there an approval process that's holding it up? Just wondering. I'll attach a screenshot.

Thank you.

Hi Kishori & Adam,

Java 8 seems to be a common version running in Production environments at the moment. In your opinion, what is the biggest change between Java 8 and Java 17?

Thank you,

Hi Bastian,

Since Rust is more of a systems language, can you see it being a replacement for C and C++ someday?

Thank you.

What changes would a software developer in a DevOps setup experience coming from a traditional IT department?

Thanks!

Hi Ron,

What's your take on Java as a beginner language? Java was my first programming language in the late 2000s. Looking back, I think Python would have been a better introductory language.

The table of contents of your book look really interesting. I'm looking forward to checking it out.

Thanks!

Hi Jeanne and Scott,

Congrats on the book. Would there be any benefit for a developer with 10 years of experience to become Java certified?

Thanks!

I was hoping someone would have real world examples on how obtaining a Spring certification has helped with their career. Thanks!

Hi Adam,

Is reactive programming used in technologies/languages other than Java? Do many languages have an equivalent to Java Streams?

Thanks!
