What is this actually? FaaS for java via k8s?

I actually thought the landing page was informative -- the code snippet and boot-time comparisons should give it away. Not used to seeing this kind of energy from java land but it is refreshing.
I'm still not going to pick java for any project ever again since better options exist IMO but this looks cool.
For personal projects I continue to prefer golang. For enterprise apps, I think Java still has a lot of potential.
What do you think about the angle of Go having a lot of potential (I honestly think it might replace java for large enterprises in 10-20 years?) because it's built for developer fungibility?
If there's one things enterprises want to do, it's reduce the cost of employing resources, and employees are one resource that gets a lot cheaper when codebases are easier to pop in and out of, and you don't need a Java Spring MVC expert, but rather a golang dev fresh out of a coding bootcamp (or whatever actually good shorter-term switch-to-tech education trends come out in the future).
Golang is used by a lot of startups, it lets you move insanely fast. Larger enterprise don't care as much about speed, but care more (allegedly!) about maintenance so as long as there are a ton of Java devs and consulting firms around, I don't see these enterprises switching over anytime soon. With the coming of Generics in v2, I think the language might start to gain a lot more adoption than it has today.
