From there, you will learn about the individual components of Helidon SE and Helidon MP, and you’ll see examples of building applications for both flavors, and for MicroProfile and Jakarta EE. Finally, the book shows how to convert Helidon applications from Java bytecode into native binaries for instant application startup and peak performance.  For Java developers who create microservices applications. For those interested in building such applications using the Helidon framework. For developers of microservices applications who want functionality such as native-image support through GraalVM, compatibility with MicroProfile, easy connectivity to database engines, and support for reactive development patterns.  weiterlesen
