Java Developers Struggle with Microservice Application Build and Redeploy Times

The 11th annual Java landscape survey by JRebel from Perforce Software has revealed that there is a growing need for Java productivity solutions.

The report indicates that the growth of microservices as a solution to simplify and accelerate Java development continues to rise in popularity within the Java ecosystem. Larger companies reported using over 21 microservices per application. However, Java developers are still facing long redeploy times, with this year’s results showing 10+ minutes as the most common redeployment time — a 6% increase from 2022.

Frustration Grows with Microservice Application Redeployment and Start-Up Times

The survey also revealed that there is growing frustration with microservice application redeployment and start-up times. 17% of respondents reported over a 50% increase in start-up times, slightly higher than last year’s results. Larger companies are still experiencing higher redeployment times, with 65% reporting times of over five minutes per redeploy.

This increase in microservice application start-up time is a significant obstacle for Java developers, as it can slow down the development process and affect overall productivity. This is where Java productivity solutions like JRebel come in. JRebel provides industry-leading Java development efficiency tools that remove bottlenecks in the development process and help developers to code better applications, faster. JRebel allows developers to skip redeploys while maintaining application state, revolutionizing Java development.

Rod Cope, CTO at Perforce Software, stated, “This year’s report shows the necessity of improving the efficiency of Java developer teams, which coincides with the increasing demand for software developers in 2023. As organizations are seeing more pressure to accelerate time-to-market, they’ll need to further invest in their developers to help them deal with DevOps at scale – and perform faster and better.”
