Quarkus Unleashed
Talkat JCON Europe 2023 · on Thursday, 2023-06-22· at 17:00· Cinema Blackbox, Im Mediapark 1, 50670 Köln, Germany·
summary
Quarkus moves expensive startup work into build-time processing, analyzing the closed world (gendex classpath index, build steps and build items) and using recorders to serialize metadata so native and JVM runs avoid repeated initialization. Demo turns a 5s library builder into an app that starts in ~1s, and benefits multiply across 100 nodes. Extensions register reflection and resources, use substitutions for GraalVM quirks, integrate with Maven/Dev mode and produce working native images via GraalVM native image.
