GraalVM

GraalVM is a high-performer runtime that provides significant improvements in application performance and efficiency which is a deal for microservices. [It's] designed for application writing in Java, JavaScript, LLVM-based languages such as C and C++. It helps to do away with isolation between programming languages and enables interoperability in a shared runtime. I love that it can run either standalone or in the context of OpenJDK,Node.js or Oracle Database.

An amazing tool that is being used in my organization to streamline Java Applications. Some of the departments are utilizing this to address the problems with the Interface of Native Java. This integrates easily with our existing applications and makes them convenient to use. This consumes [fewer] resources which makes our processes more efficient.

GraalVM is a powerful tool created by Oracle that was being used by the dev team in our organization. It is a high-performance Java Virtual Machine that also provides the Java Development Kit i.e JDK that has the ability to compile the Java applications ahead of time. Also, it helps in increasing the overall performance of the application since it consumes very fewer resources. The maintenance of the product is quite easy and it is quite flexible since it is written in Java.

This is among the most robust and user-friendly applications that are being used in certain departments of our company. This is being used to streamline the JAVA codes and test them as well. This has seamless integration with our existing applications which makes the usage very efficient. Also, the cost of deployment is comparatively less resulting in cost savings.

Just our department, we are exploring the possibility of using GraalVM to move old java applications on [the] cloud using the advantage of native compilation in order to reduce the workload and relative costs. Right now [applications] are written in spring and are quite [a] memory consuming (we use cloud stream messaging for processing [events] from Kafka).

GraalVM is being used in selective teams as an alternate to traditional JVM. A primary usage is to optimize the application compilation using the ahead of time compilation feature. One more is usage of Truffle Language Implementation framework for other JVM-supported languages such as Groovy. All this has allowed us to reduce the startup time of mission-critical applications

We are using GraalVM in order to run some on-premises servers and to test part of our solutions. I'd say it's also a perfect tool to be used by Java developers. This tool usage made us reach a new step in terms of quality tests and brought us more options.

Exploring GraalVM for microservices-based, cloud native applications and serverless applications

We are in an investigative stage with GraalVM and AOT (native-compile) at the department level (software engineering and SecDevOps). We have deployed test applications written in Java and Scala to Windows, Ubuntu, and as Docker images running on container services (Google Cloud Run and Kubernetes).

At this point, I am very impressed. There was a learning curve to understand GraalVM, the polyglot features, and native-compiles. Pluralsight has a good fundamentals overview. The home site for GraalVM has a number of good "getting started" guides.

The areas that we are seeing major impacts in are software size, load time, and cold start time. These are critical benefits as we try to minimize the size of our containers and reduce cold-start time. The end result is more container services can be deployed with the same hardware. This could have a significant financial benefit over running code in a JVM.

We are also investigating the Polyglot features, such as running Node.js and Python in GraalVM. The ability to combine Java and Node.js could present some interesting features to combine the best of our libraries.

In my opinion, this product and technology will significantly improve the performance and footprint of Java-based containers to serverless containers, Kubernetes, and OpenShift.

We used Graal in a technical spike to cut down the footprint of Java stand-alone services that ran on a scheduled basis. It was a great success and brought us savings in memory and CPU footprint and improved startup times. In the long run, this will reduce infrastructure costs and improve platform resilience.

Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition is being used in our organization across our project among a team of 45 members. It has majorly addressed the performance of applications by reducing the overhead in terms of startup time, execution time, and memory utilization. It provides additional advantages in writing applications in various programming languages.

GraalVM is being used as a Java Virtual Machine. It is currently being used in our data department within our IT organization. GraalVM has helped with issues regarding performance and optimization. My coworkers and I are pretty satisfied with the capabilities of GraalVM, as it helps for Java to run in a faster manner.

GraalVM being the most efficient Java Virtual Machine is currently being used in the banking department of our esteemed organization. It has reduced the start-up time of our banking applications by maximizing the performance and execution speed to a great extent. This has in turn resulted in client satisfaction and meeting expectations.

Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition has been used by our organization since 2019 across our Oracle department. GraalVM benefits us in writing an application that supports multiple programming languages resulting in accruing high performance and fast compilation. The developers were able to utilize the product to a greater extent and gain maximum advantage out of it.

GraalVM is an ecosystem with multiplicative value-add. Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition was used in my previous working department at the project level. By enabling interoperability and eliminating the gaps between various programming languages in a shared runtime and high-performance, GraalVM has proved to be very highly effective from the delivery perspective for all our developers.

GraalVM is an elevated performance runtime that delivers substantial improvements in the performance of the application. Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition is being used in our Product Department at the project level. It eliminates the gaps between programming languages and enables interoperability in a shared runtime. It has proved to be highly efficient for our developers from the delivery point of view.

GraalVM is a production-ready software and is available as Community Edition for an open-source license.
Oracle GraalVM Enterprise Edition is being used in our department, and it has already proven to be highly beneficial and effective as it has been built to cater to enterprise-class application development on a global standard. It has shown significant improvements in application performance and efficiency due to its high-performance runtime.

We are experimenting to use GraalVM in the context of serverless framework usage. The core issues that it addresses are image size and process start-up time, especially in the cold start scenarios. Another area of interest is in densification of the container images that we run on container clusters to save overall cost.

GraalVM is used in my organization for streamlining JAVA applications and efficient testing of code. It has provided faster startup and no interpreted code as well. It has given a low memory footprint in the use cases. Its native and bright future of performance is also a great advantage. No profiling data required now for JIT optimizations.

GraalVM is used for delivering services to many clients in our organization. It is very helpful as it has the capability to be embedded in the native applications as well as managed applications. Integrations are seamless with pre-defined formats for Oracle database, OpenJDK, MYSQL, and Node.js which makes the integration process very fast. It is also compatible with the latest Java 11 release, and it is very handy for developers, like me, who are frequently using the latest Java version to take the benefits of the latest features. Its compile time is very fast and has an optimized JIT compiler.
It is used to run the applications written in Kotlin, Python, Groovy, C++, and the interoperability is differentiated in the real-time shared runtime. We can also use the Native Image technology offered by GraalVM to compile the scripted applications well ahead of time before going into the binary code. The deployment and licensing costs approximately 25% less, reducing the overall cost.

GraalVM is still in the early stages of product investigation. Engineers are using it for R&D projects and getting familiar with how it can be used at a production level. It will address performance issues for our applications, notably startup times and artifact size.
