Could we make it to the top 5 with QuarkusIO and GraalVM?
That was my question when the competition started. "Rinha de Backend" is a popular engineering challenge in the Brazillian community, where we had to implement a simple transaction processing backend and make it as fast as possible, with severe resource limitations. With only 1.5 CPU units and 550MB RAM for the entire architecture, we had to squeeze performance anywhere imaginable.
In this session, we'll dive deep into the solution and how to build extremely lightweight containers using QuarkusIO, GraalVM, PostgreSQL, and NGINX. We'll explore the code, run the Gatling load simulation, share the results, and everything else. Join us and let's have fun squeezing performance out of applications!

I'm a software engineer at Red Hat and a career mentor at Caravana Cloud. As a member of the OpenShift team, I've been working to improve the developer experience of Kubernetes, especially on AWS. Previously, I built my experience working with global technology enterprises, including Amazon, JBoss, and Borland, as well as their customers and partners.
I also participate actively in developer communities, events, and publications worldwide. At Caravana Cloud, we help developers take the next step in their careers through collective practice in open-source projects. Besides working, I love exploring Catalonia with my family, cycling, cooking, and playing a little guitar.
