 We continue the lowdown on Java conferences. Having looked initally at sessions from three Voxxed events, last week we explored two Devoxx events and JavaOne. This week it's the turn of JChampions and JDConf.

 Use this Neo4J GraphRAG library to build your own knowledge graph-based applications.

But why GraphRAG, the concept, in the first place? GraphRAG is an advanced RAG technique which consumes structured and unstructured documents to create knowledge graphs which extract context on top of the vectors. It's that property that renders graph based RAG to provide highly relevant answers to the users' questions.

 LiteCLI, a very handy SQLite client for the CLI diehards, is upgraded by getting a LLM feature that helps you write SQL.

We first encountered LiteCLI back in early 2019, where we found that despite as an app lacking a GUI frontend, was agile and feature rich with functionality like:

 NVIDIA adds native support to CUDA for Python, making it more accessible to developers at large.

CUDA is, of course, NVIDIA's toolkit and programming model which provides a development environment for speeding up computing applications by harnessing the power of GPUs. It's not easy to conquer since it requires the code to be written code in C++ and as C++ by default is not user-friendly and difficult to master, these properties subsequently rub off on the toolkit itself.

 The last few months we've seen an increase in Java conferences. We'll try to not just enumerate, them but also mention the key talks in each of them.

This is Part 1 of a series, where we begin by looking at three Voxxed conferences in no particular chronological order; Voxxed Days Bucharest, Voxxed Days Zürich and Voxxed Days Amsterdam 2025.
