Azul Platform Prime vs. IBM Semeru Runtime

Azul helped use reduce and more efficiently use our AWS EC2 resources. We approached them in Q3 of 2021 with the goal of reducing our overall latency on the JVM 8 platform. They managed to do that for us in such a way that we could expand our options within EC2 for machine architectures and take advantage of additional resources on existing infrastructure that OpenJDK could not at that time.

I'd recommend the platform for teams that are looking to focus on their business problems and not wanting to allocate engineering staff to be full time JVM engineers. I'd also recommend them for companies that have a large extant JVM systems that want a fairly easy way to optimize their current systems without entire rewrites.

I would recommend it, it has the latest from IBM with IBM z that perhaps together with high-end processors of the latest technology make a spectacular relationship.I suppose that a good team of engineers is necessary, this is not for apprentices.If you are in that situation, I recommend starting with a program with not so many details or settings.

Prime support has been responsive in helping us tune our JVM parameters and diagnose any lingering Java resource issues.

Oracle was costlier whereas OpenJDK had less frequent updates. Azul was average of both of them, so it was choosen.

Incentivized

• A lot of OPEX savings
• Easy annual license renewal subscription
• Standard product usage since it is compatible across different Operating Systems.
