How Fit Is Java for the Cloud?
summary
The talk surveys how Java fits modern cloud environments, comparing tools for building Java containers—including Jib, Metaparticle, Skaffold, Draft and docker-maven-plugin—and how to integrate container creation into build pipelines. It also covers running Java on Kubernetes, tuning resource limits and health checks, using tools to manage deployment descriptor complexity, and discusses JVM developments such as Graal’s Substrate VM to improve startup time and memory use for cloud workloads.
