Building supersonic subatomic cloud-native Java applications with Quarkus and GraalVM

Devoxx Ukraine 2020 becomes a FREE ONLINE event 6-7th of November Kyiv, Ukraine Registration: Despite the high level of maturity and diversity of the Java ecosystem for application development, it unfortunately falls short, in comparison to Go and , due to the initial memory consumption, slow startup time and the cost of optimizations introduced with the long-running processes in mind. Quarkus is a framework that is meant to address the major drawbacks of the traditional cloud native stacks allowing the existing Java ecosystem to be used effectively for cloud native scenarios. Taking advantage of GraalVM and OpenJDK HotSpot, as well as AOT compilation and build time optimizations, Quarkus allows to reduce the application startup time to a few milliseconds and the memory consumption to a few MB, making it ideally suited to run in containers with the option to compile it to a native executable. #devoxxua #java #devoxx
