Unleash the power of your applications with Micronaut and GraalVM

In this talk, Micronaut committer Álvaro Sánchez-Mariscal, will demonstrate how you can quickly build optimised Microservices with Micronaut & GraalVM Native Image. Attendees will learn how the combination of GraalVM Native Image and Micronaut can lead to efficient, highly performant, and optimised applications that can be perfectly deployed to environments like Kubernetes or serverless platforms.

There will be a live coding demo of an application using Micronaut Data and GraalVM.

    5 Micronaut is a complete solution for any type of application: microservices, message-driven producers or consumers, command-line apps, serverless functions, etc. All application types Micronaut leverages Java annotation processors and other optimisations to compute the framework infrastructure at compile-time, drastically reducing startup time and memory consumption. Highly optimised Modern, open-source Java Framework Micronaut has been designed from scratch in 2017, focused on modern architectures like microservices and serverless, and with the cloud in mind.
  5. Micronaut computes at build time: • All dependency and configuration

    injection. • Annotation metadata (meta annotations) • AOP proxies. • Bean introspections. • All other framework infrastructure. At runtime: • No reflection. • No proxy generation. • No dynamic classloading. • No classpath scanning.

  7. Micronaut features: HTTP Client 9 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or

    its affiliates Implemented at compile time
  8. Micronaut features: message-driven applications Kafka • Producers. • Consumers. •

    Kafka Streams. RabbitMQ • Producers. • Consumers. • RPC. MQTT • Publishers. • Subscribers. NATS • Producers. • Consumers. Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or its affiliates 10
  9. Micronaut features: data access 12 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or

    its affiliates Interface implemented at compile time Query generated from the method name, compile-time validated Can have custom queries, inserts, etc
  10. Micronaut features: security 1. Authentication providers. • Bult-in support for

    LDAP and OAuth 2.0 password grant flow. 2. Security rules. • Configuration or annotation-based. 3. Authorization strategies. • Basic auth, session, JWT (JWKS, JWS), X.509. 4. OAuth 2.0. • Authorization code, client credentials and password grants. • OpenID Connect. • Ease of integration with providers such as Okta, Auth0, AWS Cognito, Keycloak and more. 13 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or its affiliates
  11. Micronaut features: Test Resources 1. Automatic provisioning of external resources

    needed during development or testing. • Containers, binaries, etc. 2. Built-in support: 3. Integrated with JUnit Platform (JUnit / Spock / Kotest) for zero-configuration Testcontainers. 14 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or its affiliates • MariaDB • MySQL • Oracle • PostgreSQL • SQL Server • Elasticsearch • Redis • MongoDB • Neo4j • Hashicorp Vault • Kafka • RabbitMQ • MQTT • Localstack
  12. Micronaut features: Serialization 1. Drop-in replacement for Jackson Databind, compile-time

    and reflection free. 2. Supports (most of) Jackson, JSON-B and BSON annotations. 3. Why? • Memory performance: 10x smaller runtime footprint. • Security: serializable classes must be opt-in. • Type-safety: Micronaut Serialization performs checks at compile-time (vs Jackson runtime exceptions). • Runtime portability: Micronaut Serialization at runtime supports different annotation sets. 15 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or its affiliates
  13. Micronaut features: misc 1. Dependency injection. • Can use JSR-330

    (@Inject) or Spring (@Autowired) annotations. 2. Configuration. • Properties, YAML, TOML, Groovy, Config4K. 3. Validation support. • Built-in: reflection free, faster startup, smaller JAR, reduced memory. • Hibernate Validation: full Bean Validation API compliance. 4. AOP: Aspect-Oriented Programming. • Compile-time, reflection free. 16 Copyright © 2024, Oracle and/or its affiliates
  14. Micronaut features: misc 1. Distributed Tracing. • Zipkin, Jaegger. 2.

    Service Discovery and Distributed Configuration. • Consul, Eureka, Kubernetes. 3. Monitoring. • Micrometer, JMX, Elasticsearch. 4. API development. • GraphQL, GRPC, Open API. 5. Containers. • Docker, Kubernetes, Testcontainers. 6. Cache. • Jcache, Redis, Ehcache, Hazelcast, Infinispan, Oracle Coherence. 7. Email. 8.
