Java Containers 101
It’s our final interview with our speakers ahead of the LJC Workshop day on 28th July. We spoke to Mofe Salami about what to expect from Java Containers 101…
1. Who do you think should come along?
Anybody who is interested in running Java micro-services within containers
2. What do you think are the three most interesting questions that this workshop will answer?
Which Linux distribution should I use for my micro-service?
How can I get smaller image sizes?
How can I get my Java containers to respect resource constraints?
3. Why do you think this workshop is important for people?
Up until Java 9 & 10, JVM-based applications did not play nicely with containers. This workshop will explore the new support for containers in Java and will cover recommendations for running Java applications.
4. Any advice for junior developers entering the industry?
As a developer with coming up to 3 years of industry experience, with respect to Java I would say keeping up to date with the latest features and general buzz around the recent release cadence, and how the different releases affect development, support and choice of tools within an organisation.
