About:
Micronaut is a modern, JVM-based framework designed for building modular, easily testable microservice applications. It features ahead-of-time compilation which eliminates the need for runtime reflection, resulting in faster startup times and lower memory consumption. The framework provides built-in support for distributed tracing, service discovery, and seamless integration with serverless environments.

Key Features:

Ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation for low memory footprint
Dependency injection and compile-time aspect-oriented programming
Built-in support for microservices patterns (service discovery, circuit breakers)
Fast startup times suitable for serverless and containerized environments

Use Cases:

Building high-performance microservices and serverless functions
Developing cloud-native applications requiring fast startup and low memory
Creating modular applications with compile-time dependency injection

Alternatives:

Spring Boot – Spring Boot is more mature with a larger ecosystem but relies on runtime reflection, resulting in higher memory usage and slower startup times compared to Micronaut.
Quarkus – Quarkus is similar in performance goals but is based on CDI, whereas Micronaut was designed from the ground up for compile-time dependency injection.
