PANEL DISCUSSION + Live Q&A

JIT vs. AOT: How to Pick the Right Approach

The popularity of Java introduced the benefits of Just-In-Time (JIT) dynamic compilation to many developers. Recently, Ahead-Of-Time (AOT) compilation techniques have also been available for Java. When should a developer use a JIT or AOT? The panelists will discuss the trade-offs between the two approaches and cover scenarios where either approach is best.
