The document presents a presentation by Dr. Marco Bungart on Quarkus, a Kubernetes-native Java stack that offers lightweight execution and native binary compilation via GraalVM. It emphasizes developer experience and provides insights into messaging with asynchronous and reactive microprofile implementations, specifically exploring the interaction between customer and order services using AMQP and Kafka. Code examples and resources are available on GitHub, with a live demonstration included.

5. Slide 5
What is Quarkus?
consol.com

“A Kubernetes Native Java stack tailored for OpenJDK HotSpot and
GraalVM, crafted from the best of breed Java libraries and
standards.” - quarkus.io

Lightweight in execution (small memory footprint)

Compilation to native binary possible through GraalVM

Even lower memory footprint

Single instance may have worse performance, but more
deployments possible due to lower resource consumption
→ net gain

Up & running within minutes

Why Quarkus?
consol.com

Developer-joy front & center

Developed by developers, for developers

Excellent Maven- and gradle-integration

Powerful dev-mode, tight feedback loop

Curated list of dependencies, “best of the breed”

Red Hat- and Community-developed

Apps (re)start within milliseconds

7. Messaging

8. Slide 8
Messaging
consol.com

Loosely coupled systems

Do not use when strong coupling is needed/wanted!

Realized through

Microprofile

implementation is asynchronous&reactive, easy to swap between
different providers

Supports JMS/AMQP, Kafka

Vendor-specific implementations (e.g. Qpid, Artemis)

More fine-grained controll, but also more configuration

9. Slide 9
Messaging – What we will look at today
consol.com

Microprofile-base implementation

Messaging-Provider:

ArtemisMQ

Kafka

Communication between two services (customer and order)

Observability


Vendor-specific implementations

Kafka-Streams (other usecase)

Partitioning

No demo on a cluster today :( but if you want to use a cluster, try
the IBM Cloud!

11. Architecture of the
system

12. Slide 12
Architecture of the system
consol.com

Customer-Service

Publishes message when a new customer is created (containing
email of customer)

Receives message when a new order for a customer is created

Order-Service

Orders need customers, so customers must be received from
Customer-service before an order can be created

Publishes message when a new order is created (containing email
of customer, an order-id, creation-date and total sum)

Customer-messages via AMQP

Order-messages via Kafka
