Complete gig history
Java has been leading for 20+ years. Now, the cloud changed everything and the cards were reshuffled. Are Java and old databases able to keep pace in the cloud? The empire tries to strike back. A completely new Java stack was created to build powerful cloud-native apps with Java. Native images with Java, faster JVMs, millisecond startup-time, in-memory data processing with up to 1000x faster queries, at up to 98% cloud database cost savings, built with 100% pure Java. That's not a vision, it's reality. In this session, you will learn how to build ultra-fast cloud-native apps and microservices with a new cloud-native Java software stack.
Modern software systems must process tons of data and must provide low latency responsiveness to be able to compete. We've known for a long time that traditional databases cannot keep pace. In-memory computing is incredibly faster. Therefore, in-memory concepts have been added at every nook and cranny. However, is it enough just to use some in-memory computing? Why there are so many different in-memory solutions? Isn't it sufficient just using a cache? Are there pitfalls? When should I use a distributed cache? Is an in-memory database the better approach? What actually is an in-memory data grid? How does an in-memory database work? In this session, you learn the basics and get a better overview to make a decision that fits your project and team.
Java has been leading for more than 20 years. However, Java is known as complicated, heavy-weight, slow, and for its slow startup time and high RAM consumption. Now, the cloud age has begun and the cloud changes everything. Is Java still suited for the cloud? Are traditional databases still suited for the cloud or is NoSQL the way to go? Can in-memory computing speed up my system and how does Java support it? Is serverless really interesting for Java developers and how do Java and serverless fit together? No worries, the holy grail was already found. A completely new Java stack was created to build real cloud-native apps with Java. Native images with Java, millisecond startup-time, in-memory data processing, up to 1000x faster database queries, highly cost-efficient serverless infrastructure, everything built with pure Java. That's not a vision, it's reality. In this session, you will learn how to build ultra-fast cloud-native apps and microservices with core Java and modern Java micro-frameworks only.
For more info on the next Devoxx UK event 👉 www.devoxx.co.uk MicroStream is a high-performance micro persistence built for microservices and serverless functions. MicroStream lets you process data in memory, enables microsecond query time, incredible throughput and workloads, it eliminates expensive mappings and latencies. The new MicroStream cluster allows you to build extremely powerful distributed apps. MicroStream is open source, easy to use, and part of project Helidon.
