World Congress 2026 Europe

Building the Future of Java: AI Agents, MCP, and Next-Gen App Development

July 9, 2026 14:50 – 15:20 · 30 min Stage 7

What this session covers

The era of simple code-completion is over. The future of software delivery belongs to autonomous AI agents capable of understanding, writing, and evolving enterprise systems. But how do you actually build and collaborate with these agents in the real world?

In this action-packed session, we’ll explore how AI Agents and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) are redefining the Java development lifecycle. We’ll move past the hype with a fast-paced, live demo showing how an AI assistant (IBM Bob) can actively help you scaffold, code, and optimize future-proof Java applications.

You will discover a practical, production-ready path for adopting AI both inside your applications and throughout your development workflow by combining the lightning-fast performance of Quarkus, the LLM orchestration of LangChain4j, and intelligent agentic workflows. Leave this session ready to supercharge your delivery and build what’s next.
