Oracle has presented GraalOS , a high-performance serverless Java-based application release technology that guarantees to help designers improve application responsiveness and cut costs.GraalOS utilizes GraalVM Native Image technology to assemble Java code to a standalone executable, leveraging x64 and AArch 64 processors on Oracle Cloud Facilities( OCI). Applications powered by GraalOS should need substantially less memory, thanks to Native Image ahead-of-time compilation, and be more economical to operate, Oracle said.GraalOS applications are instantly suspended and resumed when called, with no idle cost. The ability to suspend and quickly resume idle applications also means no cold start cost, according to Oracle. The company said the first application of GraalOS will be in supplying functions to benefit OCI Functions users. A complete application implementation platform for GraalOS is prepared for 2024. GraalOS runs native Linux executables straight, leveraging advances in hardware-enforced application seclusion. This mode eliminates the requirement to package an application into a container, getting rid of challenges such as picking a safe and secure container image and guaranteeing the current security patches remain in location and upgraded frequently. Likewise, stateful and stateless microservices and functions are supported.In an associated move, Oracle on September 19 revealed schedule of Oracle GraalVM
for JDK( Java Development Set)21, supporting Java 21 functions such as virtual threads and enhancements in Native Image performance. JDK 21 was released on September 19. Accessible from Oracle’s site, GraalVM acts as a high-performance JDK to speed up performance of Java and JVM-based applications and simplifies Java cloud native services. Polyglot application support, for passing values among languages
, also is supported. Copyright © 2023 IDG Communications, Inc. Source
