Turning the JVM into a Polyglot VM with Graal

GOTO Copenhagen 2018

The GraalVM is a polyglot platform that runs multiple languages with the same high performance you expect from Java. We’ll show you what you can do with GraalVM, including running Java faster, running JavaScript, Ruby, R, Python and sharing libraries between these languages, running Java programs without the JVM, and running native code on the JVM. Then we’ll show you a little about GraalVM does all of this, and we won’t have to leave our Java IDE to do that because GraalVM is written in Java.
