How Java can power low-latency systems — lessons from E6Data’s engineering journey

When you think low latency, Java probably isn’t the first language that comes to mind. But at E6Data, it powers parts of a high-performance analytics engine designed for speed and scale. In this talk at Rootconf Mini 2024, S. Lakshminarasimhan Sudarshan (founding engineer at E6Data) breaks the myth that Java can’t compete with C/C++ or Rust when it comes to real-time, low-latency workloads. 🚀 What this talk covers: How to minimize Garbage Collection (GC) overheads in latency-sensitive systems Writing CPU cache-efficient Java code Threading and concurrency patterns for high performance How to benchmark and profile effectively on modern CPU hardware 💡 Key takeaways: Understand how to push Java beyond its comfort zone. Learn how JVM tuning, cache awareness, and disciplined concurrency design can make Java fly. See how performance trade-offs differ between managed and unmanaged languages. 🎯 Who should watch: Developers and performance engineers building or optimizing low-latency applications — or anyone curious about making Java run faster than you thought possible. 👨‍💻 About the presenter: S. Lakshminarasimhan Sudarshan is a founding engineer at E6Data, where he designs high-performance, distributed analytics systems.
