Claim: add LLM-driven features to existing Java enterprise stacks without a Python migration. Uses langchain4j-cdi on Jakarta EE / MicroProfile with CDI to inject an AI service, switch providers via config, and plug in RAG with vector store and embeddings. Demonstrates a working Liberty car-booking app calling tools (book, get details, cancel) that enforces cancellation rules, runs locally against Llama 3.1, and shows telemetry and tracing. Notes: supports 20+ LLMs, 30+ vector stores, ~400 contributors; adds retries, timeouts and function-calling.
