📢 We do our best to repost the most valuable updates around EU projects. Still, we may be missing some important that our community would love to know.
If you want to share a project update or announcement with our followers, feel free to DM it to us, and we will review it as soon as possible.
I have just migrated a Python launch/configuration script to Java 25, and I have asked an LLM to review it 👇
Great to see external contributions driving real progress!
Native #GPU support on Apple Silicon with Metal unlocked by #TornadoVM has enabled running Devstral 2 models directly on-device — a big step forward for performance and accessibility.
This is exactly what makes #opensource so powerful!
Our @cern.voxxeddays.ch 2026 talk is now live!
We introduce TornadoVM, and show how it’s already used in the ESA #GAIA mission.
Highlight: #GPULlama3, a #GPU accelerated #LLM inference in #Java, integrated with @langchain4j.dev + #Quarkus

Official #Apple Metal support just landed to #TornadoVM + #CUDA graphs 🚀
If you're a #Java developer on #Apple computers, #TornadoVM now enables native execution on Apple Silicon via Metal (MSL).
Big applause to all contributors! 👏
#opensource #Java #AI #GPUs
TornadoVM v4.0.0 is out!
✔ Apple Metal backend → native Apple Silicon
✔ SIMD intrinsics for PTX → more performance
✔ CUDA Graphs → reduced overhead
✅ Downloads at TornadoVM → www.tornadovm.org/downloads
Big thanks to our contributors! 👏

🚀 🚀 Another major release for TornadoVM now with both JDK21 and 25 support!
You can start running your GPU accelerated AI inference workloads in Java today on all major JDK distros!
TornadoVM v3.0.0 is out!
What a milestone! This release brings:
✅ JDK 25 (25.0.2) compatibility
✅ Continued JDK 21 (LTS) support
New SDKs are now available via SDKMAN! & the #TornadoVM downloads page.
Great teamwork from the community 👏
#Java #JDK25 #opensource #Java #AI
We will definitely try TornadoVM v3.0.0 in our project! 🎉
✔ JDK 25 (25.0.2) support
✔ Continued JDK 21 (LTS) compatibility
Makes upgrading (or staying on LTS) much easier.

1. From #Java to #GPUs without writing GPU code.
2. TornadoVM SDK installation via SDKMAN!
3. Featuring #GPULlama3.java + live #IntelliJ IDE demo.
Last week, our project was represented at #VoxxedDaysTicino 2026, proudly listed among the Friends of VDT.
Thanos Stratikopoulos (@stratika.bsky.social) presented our work on hardware acceleration and data analytics for real-world use cases.

🚀 Java meets GPU acceleration - see you on the road!
Over the next two months, our team will be sharing how our #opensource #Java technologies unlock #GPU acceleration for Java #AI at conferences across Europe and beyond.
Come chat with us, attend our talks and dive into the future of Java + GPUs.
Check out this #TornadoVM webinar given by Thanos Stratikopoulos last week, explaining how TornadoVM is used in our project to accelerate Java algorithms for the analysis of space data from the #GAIAMission.
Well worth a watch if you’re interested in #Java, #GPU & scientific computing.
