I don't know if anyone on the @quarkusio core team will read this, but here is the thing. Your framework is way too good to hide it under the "cloud-native" umbrella. The way to increasing adoption in the broader Java community is to make it more visible that Quarkus is just as capable of building good old fully-featured monoliths, as is of blazing-fast microservices.

An Open Plea to the Quarkus Team

Rethink the way the Java community sees the framework.

@preslavrachev @quarkusio naming is the hardest problem in computer science, and coming up with good + short + accurate descriptions of frameworks is the second hardest problem.

But yeah, I agree with you; "kubernetes-native" doesn't capture enough of the goodness, or make the value to its potential user base clear enough.

@holly_cummins @quarkusio Ithink that the “cloud-native” bit was a great start. It was a differentiating and innovation factor, at a time when the Java community badly wanted it. Now that that’s done, its time for Part II - (JVM) world domination :)
