I am pleased to announce that the WildFly 25.0.0.Beta1 release is now available at https://wildfly.org/downloads/

This has been a busy release so there is plenty of information available at https://www.wildfly.org/news/2021/09/20/WildFly25-Beta-Released/ however some highlights are:

A new subsystem providing support for OpenTelemetry Tracing
A new subsystem that provides native support for OpenID Connect
An update of the MicroProfile Reactive Messaging subsystem to version 2.0 of the specification.
Updates to allow the same expression to be resolved either as a system property or environment variable.
Removal of legacy security integration.
Progress towards Java SE 17 support.
And plenty more.

Please try out the release and give us your feedback. In the meantime we are working towards the Final release of WildFly which we anticipate to be around the 30th September.
