Yann Blazart
SCIAM
Yann Blazart is a Senior Tech Lead and a passionate advocate of Jakarta EE and Quarkus. He has been in love with Java for 26 years and has been working with SCIAM since 2019. A long-time open-source contributor, Yann has taken part in projects such as WicketExtJs, TomEE, and JAX-WS Metro.
He is no stranger to the Devoxx stage: he ran two Hands-on Labs at Devoxx France (2012 and 2015) on Java EE, and more recently delivered a Hands-on Lab on Quarkus and Apache Ignite at Riviera Dev, Devoxx BE, and Devoxx MA in 2023. In 2024, he laid the foundations of what has since become langchain4j-cdi. In 2026, together with Antoine Sabot-Durand, he built Vidocq (https://vidocq.dev) — the first fully European MicroProfile 7.1 runtime.
