Java based software development has been a winning proposition for the past 20+ years, however, cloud native application development in the form of microservices and serverless apps are challenging the Java deployment model in terms of memory requirements and start up speed. Quarkus is a Kubernetes native Java stack that can tailor your application for Hotspot & GraalVM providing amazingly fast boot times and incredibly low RSS memory usage, making Java great again in this new Cloud Native Era.

Come to this talk to learn about Quarkus, what it brings to the table and how you can get start started with it.
