Overall Satisfaction with GraalVM
Just our department, we are exploring the possibility of using GraalVM to move old java applications on [the] cloud using the advantage of native compilation in order to reduce the workload and relative costs. Right now [applications] are written in spring and are quite [a] memory consuming (we use cloud stream messaging for processing [events] from Kafka).
Pros
- Reduce memory consumption
- Improve performance
- Improve startuptime
Cons
- Really difficult to use with reflection
- Some library not compatible (AKKA)
- Lack of documentation
- Smaller cost for containerized app in cloud
- Smaller cost for on premises deployment
- Larger developing time
