TornadoVM 8.0.0 is out! After 10 years: thank you, Graal. Java kernels are now compiled by TC, our own pure-Java compiler to CUDA, OpenCL and Metal. • AOT ready • No JVMCI • Now Apache 2.0 • Your code doesn't change 👉 www.tornadovm.org/blogs/tornad... #OpenSource #Java #AI #GPU

Great to see @tornadovm.org and @jitllm.io hit #1 on Hacker News!” Check out the latest article on @infoq.com by @ogkittylyst.bsky.social : www.infoq.com/news/2026/10...

www.infoq.com/news/2026/10... - TornadoVM version 7 brings GPU workloads directly from Java

Had so much fun at #JDD 2026 in Kraków yesterday. I presented “Java Goes CUDA-Native”: new @tornadovm.org features that let @jitllm.io run LLM inference at GPU-native speed, from Java. tornadovm.org jitllm.io #opensource #Java #TornadoVM #GPU #AI

Yesterday my colleagues @maryxek.bsky.social and @mikepapadim.bsky.social showed live demos about using NVIDIA cuFFT and cuBLAS with @tornadovm.org for signal filtering and @jitllm.io! NVIDIA performance is a jar away from Java. #Java #CUDA #TornadoVM

With the latest #TornadoVM version you can accelerate end-to-end Apache #Flink pipelines on the GPUs with native #LLM inference. No Python, no external APIs, all in one deployable jar!

We are at @devoxx.com, getting ready for our first hands-on #GPU lab for #Java! We will be in BOF2 room at 16:50, with live demos! @tornadovm.org @jitllm.io

jitLLM is part of the @langchain4j.dev 1.21.0 release! 🚀 Read more here: docs.langchain4j.dev/integrations... #opensource #LLM #GPU #Java #LangChain4j #Inference

Next week we will be in @devoxx.com and speak about @tornadovm.org, @jitllm.io and how we accelerate Java on GPUs, using #NVIDIA native libraries! Come and talk to us, to learn more! #opensource #Java #AI #TornadoVM #jitLLM #GPU

Our latest addition to the TornadoVM family. Blazing fast AI inference at native speed!

📣 New Press Release: AXHEL, an open-source C++ library from @DII_Pisa accelerating the arithmetic behind Homomorphic Encryption on AArch64. 👉 aero-project.eu/wp-content/u... Repo: github.com/AERO-Project-EU/AXHEL @hipeac.bsky.social @eucloudedgeiot.bsky.social #opensource #he #encryption

TornadoVM 7.0.0 is out! New TileContext API: Write #GPU kernels from #Java in tiles, not threads, via #NVIDIA #cuTile model. Now, cuTile methods can be mixed with cuBLAS functions in one TaskGraph, optimizing data transfers. 👉 github.com/beehive-lab/TornadoVM/releases/tag/v7.0.0 #opensource #AI

Java 27 arrived yesterday! And we are compatible since Day-0! #opensource #Java #TornadoVM #GPU

Last week, at ApplePies Conference 2026, the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Pisa presented new results from our project on #FPGA acceleration for #homomorphicencryption. Read the preprint: zenodo.org/records/2277...

It’s been a busy week in the #Java ecosystem ➤ The GA release of TornadoVM 6.0; point releases of JReleaser, LangChain4j, Java Operator SDK, JHipster, Kotlin Toolchain and Yupiik Fusion; and maintenance releases of Micronaut and GraalVM Development Kit. 🔗 #InfoQ News Roundup: buff.ly/W01plzL

New #TornadoVM release, and it's JVMCI-free. 📌No more separate jdk25 branch, no back-syncing every PR from develop - one build for JDK 21–27. 📌Native code also migrated from JNI to Panama's FFM API - 7.5k lines of C++ gone. Kudos to all contributors! 👏 #opensource #Java #GPU #AI

#TornadoVM aka #JVM on #GPU is moving fast!

TornadoVM is now modernized and forwards compatible with any JDK > 21 while receiving significant performance boosts! Can't wait to see those benefits translating to our AI inference engine in our next release!

Great news! Three talks accepted at @devoxx.com 2026! Hope to see you all and discuss the future of #Java and #AI!

Great effort and what an achievement! #LLM inference implemented in #Java, automatically accelerated on #GPUs with #TornadoVM & CUDA native support! #opensource #AI #Java #GPU

Our #Java #AI inference engine just got another major update with a huge performance leap and native #CUDA integration!

The final release of the AERO software stack is here! Our new v2.0 leaflet showcases how we've optimized cloud deployments on top of the EU processor designs & accelerators. 📄 Get the brochure: aero-project.eu/posts/aero-v... #OpenSource #cloud @hipeac.bsky.social @euprojectpulse.bsky.social
