Java 9 - 11 new features

One of the Long-term Support (LTS) versions of Java is Java 11, so it's safe to use that too. There are many new features between Java 8 and 11, which are covered in detail in this training, whether it's a completely new language element, a completely new API, a change to the way the JVM works internally, or even just a new useful method. Main topics covered are new language features, Java Platform Module System, Flow API, etc.

Each topic is accompanied by a short lab exercise that could be used in a real application.
