#ktor javalin #http4k are Kotlin-driven microframeworks if you need a small web server, API, REST, etc. They are mostly adhering to https://12factor.net/ though might need some discipline in using. Spring is indeed an ultimate hammer, but it’s heavy, starts slow, and not as performant at scale as others. See https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/previews/round15/ for some benchmarks.

Pronghorn is fast indeed, but mostly because it’s a synchronous buffer copying machine.
