The Java Cloud-Native Stack for Microservices and Serverless Architecture
Conference (BEGINNER level)
Room 1 - Thessaloniki
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.
