About Quarkus

Quarkus tailors your application for GraalVM and HotSpot. Amazingly fast boot time, incredibly low RSS memory (not just heap size!) offering near-instant scale up and high-density memory utilization in container orchestration platforms like Kubernetes. We use a technique we call compile time boot. Quarkus provides a cohesive, fun-to-use, full-stack framework by leveraging a growing list of over fifty best-of-breed libraries that you love and use. A cohesive platform for optimized developer joy with unified configuration and no hassle native executable generation. Zero configs, live reload in the blink of an eye, and streamlined code for the 80% common usages, flexible for the remainder 20%. The combination of Quarkus and Kubernetes provides an ideal environment for creating scalable, fast, and lightweight applications. Quarkus significantly increases developer productivity with tooling, pre-built integrations, application services, and more.

Fairwinds Insights
Fairwinds Insights
Protect and optimize your mission-critical Kubernetes applications. Fairwinds Insights is a Kubernetes configuration validation platform that proactively monitors your Kubernetes and container configurations and recommends improvements. The software combines trusted open source tools, toolchain integrations, and SRE expertise based on hundreds of successful Kubernetes deployments. Balancing the velocity of engineering with the reactionary pace of security can result in messy Kubernetes configurations and unnecessary risk. Trial-and-error efforts to adjust CPU and memory settings eats into engineering time and can result in over-provisioning data center capacity or cloud compute. Traditional monitoring tools are critical, but don’t provide everything needed to proactively identify changes to maintain reliable Kubernetes workloads.

Dropwizard
Dropwizard
Dropwizard is a Java framework for developing ops-friendly, high-performance, RESTful web services. Dropwizard pulls together stable, mature libraries from the Java ecosystem into a simple, lightweight package that lets you focus on getting things done. Dropwizard has out-of-the-box support for sophisticated configuration, application metrics, logging, operational tools, and much more, allowing you and your team to ship a production-quality web service in the shortest time possible. Dropwizard straddles the line between being a library and a framework. Its goal is to provide performant, reliable implementations of everything a production-ready web application needs. Because this functionality is extracted into a reusable library, your application remains lean and focused, reducing both time-to-market and maintenance burdens. Because you can’t be a web application without HTTP, Dropwizard uses the Jetty HTTP library to embed an incredibly tuned HTTP server directly into your project.

Grails
Grails
A powerful Groovy-based web application framework for the JVM built on top of Spring Boot. Convention-over-configuration, sensible defaults, opinionated APIs, and the Groovy language combine to make the Grails® framework easy to learn for Java developers. The Grails framework is built on top of Spring Boot and leverages Spring Boot's time-saving features, such as Spring-powered dependency injection. The Grails framework seamlessly and transparently integrates and interoperates with Java, the JVM, and existing Java EE containers. Apache Groovy is a language for the Java platform designed to enhance developers' productivity. It is an optionally-typed and dynamic language but with static-typing and static compilation capabilities. The Grails framework seamlessly integrates with GORM, a data access toolkit that provides a rich set of APIs for accessing relational and non-relational data. GORM also includes implementations for Hibernate (SQL), MongoDB, Cassandra, and Neo4j.
