GraalVM Enterprise

Overall Satisfaction with GraalVM

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.
  • Multiple languages
  • Minimal memory
  • Open source
  • Visibility of roadmap
  • Developers have been using it
I have not used other products like GraalVM, and I was not in charge of evaluating other products.
GraalVM does a good job of supporting multiple languages and performance. It is not too intensive with regards to memory. It starts up quickly so that there is little lag and downtime. I also think that GraalVM is good because it does not take up a lot of space on your machine.

Yes

Are you happy with GraalVM's feature set?

Did GraalVM live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of GraalVM go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy GraalVM again?

Yes

GraalVM is good for when you have multiple programming languages that you need to support. It also does quite a good job in performance and optimization. It is good at empowering developers. I could caution that not all programming languages are supported so you may need to check the documentation first before adopting it.
