In this myth-busting webinar, Steve Millidge (founder of [Payara](https://www.payara.fish/dismiss-the-myths/)), demonstrates that Java/Jakarta EE can do microservices.

In this video, Steve explains:

* What are microservices?
* How JAX-RS API makes it easy to develop applications that use the REST architecture
* Deployment models for microservices
* How to use MicroProfile with [Jakarta EE](https://jakarta.ee/)
* 12 factor apps with Jakarta EE

If you've been hearing that Java/Jakarta EE is only for monolithic architecture, watch this video to see why that's not true and how you can continue using your existing development skills to modernize your application development with microservices.
