Re: What are micro-services?

[Mihael Schmidt <mihael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't think that it has anything to do with the JVM (and neither with 
the JRE) besides the concept of having a VM.

From the website:

"The Ballerina compiler is written in Java with a generated LL parser 
using ANTLR4. It generates binary files containing a Ballerina bytecode 
format that is platform neutral and different than Java’s bytecode."

As it is different from Java it cannot run on the JVM (without again 
compiling it to Java bytecode which is not mentioned).

Best regards

Mihael
