Talks

Fast and Efficient Java Microservices with GraalVM

Minimizing resource usage and ensuring scalability are major concerns in cloud deployments. For Java applications, GraalVM Native Image offers a perfect deployment platform for the cloud, enabling fast startup, low memory footprint, and instant performance. We’ll learn how to get started, take a look at various frameworks that work with GraalVM Native Image, see what's new (and there's a lot!), and learn how to make the most out of it for your applications.

Transforming Data Using the Functional APIs of Java

The power of Java's functional programming goes far beyond lambdas and the filter, map of the Stream API. In this presentation we will look at various data transformations and see how the functional APIs in the JDK can provide concise solutions for these.

We will start with the Stream's API and quickly dive into some newer functions and also the utilities of the Collectors. Along the way you will get a deeper understanding of some of the excellent functions that are hidden in plain sight.
