In my evening hours I had the chance to talk to Jeff Genender (@jgenender) which resulted in a new episode of my developer interviews. We talked about all things Apache and integration and also a bit about Java EE and microservices and what today's customers want from a modern architecture.

Jeff has over 23 years of software architecture, team lead, and development experience in multiple industries.

As usual, time to grab a coffee+++ and lean back while listening! Thank you Jeff, for taking the time..
