Project Title and description

Quarkus is a Cloud Native, (Linux) Container First framework for writing Java applications.

Describe your use case for these machines

The existing Quarkus integration test suite encapsulates multiple different platforms, frameworks, databases and libraries, but not ARM (see: Quarkus Integration Tests). Because continuous integration does not have access to ARM hardware, the incremental checks on individual pull requests do not have full coverage. ARM capability ends up being sparingly tested during our product release processes via QE.

Access to ARM testing during the development process would allow developers to catch errors and issues earlier in the product life cycle. It also helps them reproduce issues reported by users and provide fixes in the community source.

Which members of the community would benefit from your work?

Anyone using Quarkus applications with ARM hardware. This includes developers creating Quarkus-based applications on ARM-based development machines, and organizations deploying Quarkus applications onto ARM servers.

Is the code that you’re going to run 100% open source?

Yes.

Project code is here: https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus

Documentation is here: https://quarkus.io/

Please outline your credits requirements at a high level to support Arm builds (purpose, duration, amount, other)

Please share a public URL of the CI dashboard (if applicable).

GitHub Actions are used for the Quarkus CI.

See https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus/actions for CI dashboard.

Does the project allows the use of your project logo on ARM's developer website freely? Yes / No / Not Sure

Yes
