Emmanuel Hugonnet

IBM

Into the Java World for the last 25 years, I joined Red Hat in 2013 to contribute on the development of the JakartaEE server WildFly and moved to IBM in 2025.
I also contribute to a large number of OSS projects and I'm a member of the Apache NetBeans Dream Team.
I've been one of the founder of the SnowCamp conference and I'm a JUG leader of AlpesJUG.
Recently I've started to look into Generative AI and LangChain4J and I started the wildfly-ai-feature-pack to facilitate developing Generative AI JakartaEE applications with WildFly, contributing to langchain4j-cdi and LangChain4J along the way.
I also contribute to the A2A Java SDK providing a reference implementation of the A2A protocol in Java.
