WebAssembly (WASM) is emerging as a powerful tool beyond its browser origins, enabling safer, more flexible, and more efficient execution across a wide range of enterprise applications.
In this session, we’ll take a hands-on look at real-world use cases, including:
- When and why you might need WASM to bootstrap an ecosystem purely on the JVM -- JRuby
- How to make slow-starting interpreters practical for fast UDFs in databases by reducing startup overhead -- TrinoDB
- Running WASM sandboxes on the hot path while minimizing serialization overhead through lazy access to host memory -- Debezium
We’ll explore the challenges we faced integrating WASM into existing platforms, how we overcame them, and what this means for Java and modern enterprise architectures.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of WASM's growing role in the enterprise world and a set of practical techniques to overcome initial hiccups and doubts and start using the technology in their projects.
