Look inside

In this liveProject, you’ll dive into the role of a software developer working on a catalog application for the Chill+ streaming service. Your boss has given you the task of developing a native version of the catalog application using Oracle GraalVM and Quarkus, in order to help manage resources as the app scales. You’ll create and test your executable with GraalVM, then build a Kubernetes-ready container for embedding the application.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
