Overall Satisfaction with 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.
  • 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.
  • The ability to compile applications ahead of time.
  • Supports Java 11 which results in better enhanced performance.
  • Infrastructure cost reduction.
  • Minimal consumption of resources.
The support is not that available 24.7 they need to better their services and improve to make a step ahead of other competitors in the market. Nevertheless, we are just looking for more improvement from the support team, and everything will run smoothly.
The reason why we had to select GraalVM one is [a] cutting-edge compiling technique, GraalVM is well operated in the Environment of Open JDK, which speeds up the execution of Java programs. GraalVM makes creating packages and native apps simpler, and this improves distribution. It also brings native image support [that] makes compilation and distribution easy and effective.

Its well fit for the environment where applications are written in programming languages supported by GraalVM. It's [a] very powerful and reliable, high-performer Java Virtual Machine that provides the Java Development kit i.e JDK that has the ability to compile the Java apps ahead of time. Maintenance of this tool is simple and it [increases] the efficiency of the product since it requires few resources.
