Quarkus for Developers

• Familiarity with Java frameworks (Spring, Java EE, etc.)
• Java programming experience

Audience

• Developers

Quarkus is an open source Java framework designed for developing Kubernetes-native and cloud-native applications. It provides a full stack of capabilities that are optimized for fast startup, low memory usage, and efficient code compiling and runtime.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to use Quarkus to build, test, and deploy applications, fully-powered with Java, but with less resource utilization.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up the necessary development environment to start developing applications with Quarkus.
• Build, compile, and run applications in native mode using GraalVM.
• Utilize Quarkus tooling and extensions for building native applications using Maven.
• Containerize, execute, and deploy applications with Docker.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Course Customization Options

• This course is focused on Quarkus, but other software tools, such as Apache Maven, GraalVM, and Docker may be required. Please let us know if you have any specific requirements.
