Join us for a new IntelliJ IDEA Livestream episode with Daniel Hinojosa and explore the Vector API a powerful tool for writing high-performance code in Java. Date: June 25, 2025Time: 3:004:00 pm UTCREGISTER FOR THE LIVESTREAMSession abstractIn this session, we will discuss the Vector API in a preview in Java. We will begin by introducing SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) and explore how it can be used to maximize computation speed. The session will then cover the setup required to use the Vector API, including how to establish a species, define and use components and lanes, and apply masking with different strategies. We will also discuss same-lane and cross-lane computation. Finally, we will conclude by presenting metrics comparing the performance of using the Vector API versus not using it.This session is primarily aimed at backend developers working on performance-intensive applications, as they can leverage the Vector API to optimize computational tasks. Software architects are the secondary audience, as they need to understand the implications of using the Vector API when designing high-performance systems that require efficient data processing. DeepTech professionals may also find this session valuable on account of its focus on advanced computational techniques and performance optimizations using SIMD and the Vector API.Asking questionsDaniel will try to answer all of your questions during the session. If we run out of time, well publish answers to any remaining questions in a follow-up blog post.Your speaker and hostSpeaker Daniel Hinojosa Daniel Hinojosa has been a self-employed developer, teacher, and speaker for private business, education, and government since 1999.
