GraalVM

What is GraalVM?

An ecosystem and shared runtime offering performance advantages not only to JVM-based languages such as Java, Scala, Groovy, and Kotlin, but also to programming languages as JavaScript, Ruby, Python, and R. Additionally, it enables the execution of native code on the JVM via LLVM front-end.

GraalVM is a tool in the Infrastructure as a Service category of a tech stack.

Key Features

Polyglot - Zero overhead interoperability between programming languages allows you to write polyglot applications and select the best language for your taskNative - Native images compiled with GraalVM ahead-of-time improve the startup time and reduce the memory footprint of JVM-based applicationsEmbeddable - GraalVM can be embedded in both managed and native applications. There are existing integrations into OpenJDK, Node.js, Oracle Database, and MySQL

Quarkus

GraalVM

Vert.x

We use Quarkus with native compilation in GraalVM for our global REST-API "Charon", that can be used by every developer to request user, server and game-data (protected through OAuth2). Quarkus offers a reliable framework, library and stack for high-quality APIs and integrates Vert.x into its core.

GraalVM pushes the performance boundaries even further with the ability to perform ahead-of-time native compilation so we can reach an incredible small memory-footprint and fast bootup-times that we need for our microservices architecture.

Clojure

GraalVM

We use Clojure because of simplicity, performance and great fit to our problem domain: processing a lot of structured data. Based on my experience so far, Clojure is my go-to language for most tasks, except for when a fast startup time and a low resource footprint is required - basically CLI tools. That's slowly starting to change thanks to native-image and GraalVM
