Oracle GraalVM
Oracle GraalVM is a high-performance runtime and toolchain whose best-known component, Native Image, compiles Java applications ahead of time into native executables. Executables start without warmup and use less memory and CPU than a JVM, and they contain only the classes and methods an application needs. Frameworks such as Spring Boot, Micronaut, Helidon and Quarkus support it, and the project also covers Truffle and WebAssembly capabilities.
