Sponsored Session: Cassandra on Steroids
summary
Azul Platform Prime replaces OpenJDK GC and JIT with C4 continuous garbage collection, Falcon JIT and ReadyNow warm‑up profiles to eliminate stop‑the‑world pauses, cut P99.9 latency below 100 ms, and drop observed tail latencies from hundreds of milliseconds to single digits. Customers report 30% fewer servers and ~50% smaller DB footprint (Taboola example), ready profiles of 100–200 MB that load at startup, Kubernetes integration for automated profiling, and sustained throughput approaching 990k QPS before GC impact.
