Reactive Microservices with Quarkus
summary
Quarkus is presented as a framework to make Java apps smaller and reactive: significantly reduced memory footprints and much faster cold starts, especially when compiled to GraalVM native images. The demo migrates a blocking JAX‑RS + JDBC/JPA "cheese‑shop" app to reactive components using Mutiny for asynchronous flows, reactive DB drivers and Panache for non‑blocking persistence, a reactive REST client, and builds a GraalVM native image; development features shown include dev mode with live reload and container/Kafka troubleshooting.
