Java Virtual Threads show us how modern technologies can rethink old engineering problems.

Tell us about a time you did the same - which modern technology helped you solve a long-standing challenge and why was it a better approach?

The most creative answer wins the merch.

    I was developing a case insensitive search functionality for an internal application and managed to 12x the performance using Java Vector API which is still in the incubator, yet it already delivers nontrivial performance boost in special cases like this. It was a better approach thanks to utilizing byte-wise SIMD.
