WebAssembly on the JVM: Feature Evolution, Performance, and the Transition to Endive
Webassembly Jvm Wasm Chicory Endive Bytecode alliance Server Side wasm Edge computing Jit compilation Plugin architecture Runtime performance
This interview explores WebAssembly's evolution beyond the browser into server-side JVM environments, covering the shift from interpreted to JIT-compiled Wasm runtimes. Andrea Peruffo discusses production use cases including edge computing platforms and modular plugin architectures, while announcing the Chicory runtime's transition to "Endive" under Bytecode Alliance governance. Ideal for senior developers, architects, and JVM ecosystem engineers interested in server-side WebAssembly adoption.
