Markus Eisele is a Java Champion, Oracle ACE Director, Java EE Expert Group member, Java community leader of German DOAG, founder of JavaLand, reputed speaker at Java conferences around the world, and a very well known figure in the Enterprise Java world. Now he is joining as Developer Advocate in JBoss Middleware team at Red Hat.

You’ve known and seen him at different conferences, JUGs, meetups, blogs, social media talking about middleware for many years. And you’ll continue to hear him talk about that going forward as well. And it will still be focused on educating the latest in enterprise technology and any thing around ~100 projects at Red Hat.

I had the honor of presenting his Java Champion jacket during the inaugural JavaLand conference earlier this year. And that lovely moment is captured below (photo from his blog):
