Java on CRaC - Superfast JVM Application Startup

Explore the potential of CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) for dramatically reducing JVM application startup times in this informative conference talk. Learn about the challenges of microservice architecture scalability, particularly regarding JVM warmup times, and discover how CRaC aims to address these issues. Delve into the main challenges of implementing checkpointing in Java applications, potential solutions, and results from a proof-of-concept implementation. Gain insights into how CRaC compares to other approaches like native images and ahead-of-time compilation. Presented by Simon Ritter, Deputy CTO of Azul Systems and Java Champion, this talk offers valuable knowledge for developers and architects looking to optimize Java-based microservices deployment and performance.
