Security Baked Into the JVM: why fork Apache River and OpenJDK?
Read OriginalThis article discusses the challenges of securing distributed systems after Java's SecurityManager removal, introducing two community projects: DirtyChai (a security-hardened OpenJDK fork) and JGDMS (a fork of Apache River for secure, dynamically-discoverable microservices over IPv6). It explains how these projects push security into every layer, from codebase auditing to authorization, and clarifies what JGDMS is not—it's not a sandbox for untrusted code. The post targets developers interested in advanced Java security, distributed systems, and microservice architectures.
