SPRING BOOT vs VERT.X
Hello, everyone! I’m starting my journey as a back-end developer in Java, and I’m currently exploring Vert.x and Spring Boot. Although I don’t yet have solid professional experience with either, I’m looking for tips and advice from people with more expertise in the field.
I’m a big fan of performance and always strive to maximize efficiency in my projects, aiming for the best performance at the lowest cost. In all the benchmarks I’ve analyzed, Vert.x stands out significantly in terms of performance compared to Spring Boot (WebFlux). On average, it handles at least 50% more requests, which is impressive. Based solely on performance metrics, Vert.x seems to be the best option in the Java ecosystem, surpassing even Quarkus, Spring Boot (WebFlux/MVC), and others.
That said, I’d like to ask: What are your thoughts on Vert.x? Why is it still not widely adopted in the industry? What are its main drawbacks, aside from the added complexity of reactive programming?
Also, does it make sense to say that if Vert.x can handle at least 50% more requests than its competitors, it would theoretically lead to at least a 50% reduction in computing costs?
Thank you!
