High-quality code. Simple systems. Built on 35 years of production experience.
Java was designed for managed environments. The fat-jar era threw that away. Aether brings it back.
@Slice
public interface OrderService {
Promise<OrderResult> placeOrder(PlaceOrderRequest request);
static OrderService orderService(InventoryService inventory,
PricingEngine pricing) {
return request -> inventory.check(request.items())
.flatMap(available -> pricing.calculate(available))
.map(priced -> OrderResult.placed(priced));
}
}Write an interface annotated with @Slice. Aether handles distribution, scaling, resilience, observability, and zero-downtime deployments.
No HTTP clients. No service discovery. No retry logic. No circuit breakers. No serialization code. A method call is the only visible contract.
Modern Java development faces real problems that frameworks alone don't solve.
Every microservice bundles web servers, serialization, service discovery, config management, metrics, and retry logic. Infrastructure and business logic compile together, deploy together, break together.
Kubernetes solves distribution but adds operational burden. Teams spend more time managing infrastructure than building features. A platform team becomes mandatory.
84% of developers use AI coding tools, but 46% don't trust the output. Code churn from AI is 41% higher. Teams need guardrails.
Distributed Java runtime that returns Java to its natural habitat. Write business logic as slices, deploy distributed. The runtime handles everything else.
Methodology and tooling for writing deterministic, exception-free Java code. The patterns that make Aether slices clean — applied to any Java project.
Pragmatic solutions built on real-world experience.
From firmware to distributed systems, trading platforms to blockchain nodes — we've built software that works at scale.
JBCT and Aether aren't theoretical. They're distilled from decades of solving real problems in production environments.
You don't have to go all-in. Start with Aether Ember in a single JVM alongside your existing application — or adopt JBCT patterns one at a time.
Start small, prove value, expand when ready.
Whether you're exploring options or ready to start a pilot, we'd love to hear from you.
