Case study BYLES: How Java, standards, and community helped education equality
summary
A university team turns a paper screening into a Kubernetes-hosted web platform that hits peaks of 5,000 parallel users and screens 233,000 kids across ~13,000 classes, using Quarkus + Keycloak + Hazelcast with PostgreSQL and OpenAPI-generated TypeScript. The system enforces in-memory handling of sensitive data, passes official pentests, keeps request latencies mostly under 200 ms, and runs on on‑prem nodes (no cloud) — a delivered, production service.
