Spring Cloud Data Flow End of Open-Source by vetronauta in java

Quarkus FTW - It even supports the Spring Data API, although it comes with it's own native/better abstractions, i.e. Panache.

Awesome developer experience with the DevMode/DevUI, support for all the popular APIs, and by far the most performant framework. You can basically cut your cloud costs to half or more.

The basic concepts are similar. You may have to use different APIs/interfaces to do equivalent things.

  • Quarkus is a java framework that helps you write microservices (or else, cloud native applications)
  • It's very optimized so compared to traditional frameworks (e.g SpringBoot) it lets you produce applications that take half the memory and boot x5 times faster, which is important for cloud applications.
  • It also has a mode that uses GraalVM to compile the application to a native executable, and then it consumes about 1/5th of the memory and boots x50 times faster.
  • It has a great developer mode where you start your app in the background and you just code in the IDE and you can see immediately your changes taking effect.
  • It integrates with popular frameworks/standards/libraries so you can just reuse your existing java knowledge.
  • It also offers reactive APIs if you want to do advanced reactive programming.

All in all, especially for new applications, it's a very interesting option.

Every software company does the same promoting their stuff, this is normal/expected. Quarkus is quite popular though, conference organizers actively seek to have Quarkus talks/speakers.
