As microservices pushed Java to improve startup performance, many solutions have emerged. However, most of them require tradeoffs, such as heavy refactoring or runtime limitations. Project Leyden, an OpenJDK initiative, tackles startup time, peak performance, and memory footprint without forcing you to rewrite your app. By using a training run and caching performance-critical data, Leyden delivers real gains with minimal disruption. Join this session to see Leyden in action, learn how to integrate it into your projects today, and get a sneak preview of what’s coming next.
