What is GraalVM?
GraalVM is a runtime for microservices that aims to provide significant improvements in application performance and efficiency. The vendor states its ahead-of-time (AOT) compiler allows microservices to startup instantaneously with significantly smaller memory footprint.
It is a universal virtual machine for running applications written in JavaScript, Python, Ruby, R, JVM-based languages like Java, Scala, Groovy, Kotlin, Clojure, and LLVM-based languages such as C and C++. It removes the isolation between programming languages and enables interoperability in a shared runtime. It can run either standalone or in the context of OpenJDK, Node.js or Oracle Database.
GraalVM Community is available for free for any use.
GraalVM Enterprise provides additional performance, security, and scalability relevant for running applications in production. Users can get a version of GraalVM Enterprise that is free for evaluation and developing new applications via the Oracle Technology Network (OTN), or a commercially licensed version for production use via the Oracle Store.

GraalVM, Most trusted, Straightforward, cost-effective,Enterprise Edition Java Applications.
- Run Java Faster, GraalVM can run in the context of OpenJDK to make Java applications run faster with a new just-in-time compilation technology.
- Make Application Extensible, GraalVM enables running JavaScript, R, Python, Ruby, LLVM IR, and Web Assembly in the context of Java Data Applications.
- Create a Native Image, running [an] application inside a Java VM comes with startup and footprint costs.
- Documentation is not that well detailed up to date.
- The customer support is not always available.

Just migrate to GraalVM, the best performance on the market.
- Easy to configure.
- Consumes few resources.
- Compatible with traditional JAVA development.
- Nothing
- GraalVM performs very well, especially EE edition
- The short startup times for native images push Java more towards "cloud native" experience
- Integrating different languages using GraalVM leverages their combined strengths in an innovative way
- It should be possible to use GraalVM EE to distribute native images of JavaFX applications for mobile platforms, especially for Apple platforms.
- Native Images are a game changer. However, compiling complex applications can be a pain. Better support for an improved transition process are a must.

Great for already native project
- Reduce memory consumption
- Improve performance
- Improve startuptime
- Really difficult to use with reflection
- Some library not compatible (AKKA)
- Lack of documentation

"One VM to rule them all" -- GraalVM works as promise...
- [Building] AI related projects that using programming languages on JVM.
- Accelerate Scala-based projects with native image.
- [...]
- The download speed for prebuilt binaries of GraalVM CE on Github is slow, and I hope more download mirrors for GraalVM could be provided, maybe directly from its home site www.graalvm.org is a good idea.
- Hope to add built-in support OpenCL within GraalVM for heterogeneous parallel computing.
- Hope to add support for running GraalVM on RISC-V.

GraalVM - fast, polyglot VM
- Polyglot vm
- Reduced memory footprint
- Fast startup times
- Not always optimal native code (JIT sometimes is faster)
- Microservices support
- Hard to profile
February 19, 2021
GraalVM has the potential to shake up Java container deployments
- Reducing software cold start time
- AOT--Native compile, which removes the dependency on the JRE and JVM
- Reduces application size. Combining native-compile and EXE compression significantly reduces the size of our containers
- Native compiles. We have problems figuring out how to package jars with all dependencies for compilation. This might be our problem as we progress through the learning curve.
- More support and testing for Sprint and GraalVM.
- I recommend providing installer packages instead of downloading zip files.
