Track: Groovy

Jun-05 16:10-16:40

In this session, Sergio del Amo introduces the Micronaut® framework and demonstrates how the Framework’s unique compile-time approach enables the development of ultra-lightweight Java applications.

Compelling aspects of the Micronaut framework include:

Develop applications with Java, Kotlin, or Apache Groovy

Sub-second startup time

Small processes that can run in as little as 10 MB of JVM heap

No runtime reflection

Dependency injection and AOP

Reflection-free serialization

A database access toolkit that uses ahead-of-time (AoT) compilation to pre-compute queries for repository interfaces.

Cloud-native features

Sergio also demonstrates how you can generate GraalVM native images of your Micronaut applications to achieve instant startup and ultra-low memory footprint.

Sergio del Amo is a Micronaut core committer, Developer Advocate for the Micronaut Foundation, and host of the Micronaut podcast.
