Why Quarkus Should Be Your Next Tech Stack: Faster, Greener & Happier • Holly Cummins • GOTO 2023

Holly Cummins introduces Quarkus and explains how its cloud-native features and native compilation make Java applications faster and more efficient.

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Amsterdam 2023. #GOTOcon #GOTOams gotoams.nl Holly Cummins - Senior Principal Software Engineer on the Red Hat Quarkus Team @Holly_Cummins ORIGINAL TALK TITLE Faster, Greener and Happier − Why Quarkus Should Be Your Next Tech Stack RESOURCES hollycummins.com hollycummins.com/type/blog twitter.com/holly_cummins hachyderm.io/@holly_cummins github.com/holly-cummins linkedin.com/in/holly-k-cummins ABSTRACT Java never went away, but it’s having a renaissance. After some initial teething pains on the cloud (too big, too slow, too hard to configure) a new breed of Java frameworks are changing everything. In this talk, Holly will introduce Quarkus and then delve into some of the advanced features you might not know about. She’ll cover native binaries, what makes Quarkus super-fast running on the JVM, TDD with Quarkus, and Quarkus’s carbon footprint. The talk includes some theory (what underpins Quarkus’s surprising speed?) and also live demos (does Quarkus really start faster than a light bulb? What does an integration testing flow with Quarkus look like?)
