Azul Zing Builds of OpenJDK
Azul Zing Builds of OpenJDK (Zing) are a modern, TCK-compliant Java platform based on OpenJDK. It’s a “drop-in replacement,” you don’t need to recompile your code. Running your Java workloads with Zing delivers:
-
Low, consistent response latency of your Java workloads.
-
Higher total throughput and carrying capacity, even under strict response latency SLAs.
-
Faster warm-up to your application’s steady-state performance and less deviations from steady-state performance over the life of your Java application.
-
Infrastructure savings from serving the same load with fewer Java instances.
Zing delivers these benefits through:
-
Lower latency outliers thanks to the C4 pauseless garbage collector.
-
Higher throughput and code speed thanks to the Falcon JIT compiler.
-
Lower warmup time and less deoptimizations thanks to the ReadyNow warmup optimizer and Cloud Native Compiler.
