Nowadays, containers are more than a cool new tool to play with - they've revolutionized the way we develop, architect and ship software and have become part of our day-to-day operations.
On the other hand, Java has been around for more than 2 decades, dominating the entreprise world. Both advocate the "RUN anywhere" principal, but, is it that easy? No! Your perfect working local container will most probably fail on production because of MEMORY &/or CPU issues, since jvm apps assume they OWN the server they are running on.
This session will look at the gotchas of running JVM apps in containers & how to avoid costly pitfalls.
We will cover:
The containers technology revolutionized the way we architect, develop and ship our applications, and brought Java developers closed than ever to "Write once run anywhere"! However, Containers added some layers of abstraction: We have to write a Dockerfile, setup Docker daemon, wait for builds to complete, fix any errors and finally push the image to registry! Wasn't building our favorite packaging formats (jar/war|ear) easier?!
This TIA, explores what Jib, an open source fast image builder Java library from Google, brought to the table, and how it speeds up development by finely separating the application across multiple layers and incrementally building the image, by inferring what it needs from Maven or Gradle project.
We'll also discuss the concept of "Distroless" container Images and how to benefit from it.
