Graal Native Image

Native Image is a technology to ahead-of-time compile Java code to a standalone executable, called a native image. In the process 
of building a native image all library dependencies, including those from the JDK will be packed the native image.
The application created as a native image can be run without a JDK. The natively compiled applications require generally
less memory and have shorter start up times.
