Java developers are cheap and easy to find. There are libraries for everything that you would need - AWS SDK, Redis, etc. Performance is tolerable and can be improved with things like Micronaut and native ahead of time compilation (GraalVM).
- sz4kerto 5y agoThey're not cheap :) or -- I'm not sure what you mean by cheap, but good Java coders are generally amongst the best paid ones.
- paulmd 5y agoit's really bimodal imo, there's a tier of sweatshop contractor job that pays $50-70k (or did before salaries got nuts the last few years) and then senior jobs pay $140k ish average now. Senior getting paid more isn't new but it seems like maybe a 2x ratio is higher than elsewhere.
- isbvhodnvemrwvn 5y agoGood <insert any language> coders are generally amongst the best paid ones, but let's be honest an average Java developer is lost if they can't find an annotation to solve their problem. It was the "default mid-tier university language" for a while, and it really shows in quality of people who apply.
- manuelabeledo 5y ago> Java developers are cheap and easy to find. I wish.
- wiseowise 5y agoNobody said they’re good quality though.
- kaba0 5y agoNative AOT doesn’t improve performance, but start up time and memory overhead.
- throw_m239339 5y ago> Java developers are cheap and easy to find As opposed to what developers that aren't cheap? Node.js? PHP? C#? Python? I have no idea what developer you're talking about here. Do you think JEE developers are cheap?
