Vadym Kazulkin leads development at ip.labs in Bonn, Germany, where he focuses on building and optimizing scalable backend systems.
He spends his time tackling the challenges of running Java in serverless environments. While Java is often criticized for slow cold starts and heavy memory use on cloud infrastructure, Vadym breaks down how to make it run fast. His teaching covers benchmarking AWS Lambda performance, hardware architectures, and modern tools like GraalVM and AWS SnapStart to help engineers drastically cut down on processing delays.
