JavaOne 2026 Session

Summary

JVMs power applications and infrastructure across cloud environments. Traditionally, JVMs have operated with a pre-cloud mindset, functioning independently of the cloud’s infrastructure and capabilities. This talk will discuss Cloud Native JVMs: JVMs that not only run in the cloud but actively leverage its environment to optimize performance and contribute value back to the ecosystem. We’ll focus on fleet-wide profiling, code optimization, and experience orchestration, showcasing how Cloud Native Compilation and Profile Orchestration can significantly enhance execution. The session explores code optimization in traditional vs. Cloud Native JVMs, covering improvements in speed, deployment, startup, and sustained performance.
