Spring Boot on the Edge

DaShaun Carter - Broadcom

Imagine deploying microservices to low-powered, distributed devices at the network edge. This talk dives into building and deploying cloud-native, kubernetes-native, enterprise-grade, production-ready applications, to the edge, with Spring Boot.

What you’ll learn:

• Harnessing the power of Spring Boot and GraalVM: Discover how AOT processing with GraalVM can significantly improve startup time and memory footprint, making Spring Boot ideal for resource-constrained edge devices.
• Kubernetes at the edge: Explore the possibilities of deploying microservices to a lightweight Kubernetes cluster, unlocking scalability and resilience.
• Scaling on demand: Learn about techniques for scaling to zero and auto-scaling, ensuring optimal performance at the edge.
• Conquering the edge: Get practical tips for handling unreliable internet connections and other challenges specific to edge deployments.

Join this session to:

• Gain valuable insights into the potential of Spring Boot and GraalVM for edge computing.
• Unleash the power of Kubernetes on resource-constrained devices.
• Discover robust patterns for building cloud-native applications tailored for the edge.
• Leave inspired to explore innovative possibilities for your next Spring Boot project.

Bonus:

• Witness a live demo showcasing the reference architecture in action, running on a Raspberry Pi.
• Get valuable resources and learning materials to continue your edge exploration.
