Airlift framework for building REST services

Airlift

Airlift is a framework for building REST services in Java.

This project is used as the foundation for distributed systems like Trino (formerly PrestoSQL).

Airlift pulls together stable, mature libraries from the Java ecosystem into a simple, light-weight package that lets you focus on getting things done and includes built-in support for configuration, metrics, logging, dependency injection, and much more, enabling you and your team to ship a production-quality web service in the shortest time possible.

Airlift takes the best-of-breed libraries from the Java ecosystem and glues them together based on years of experience in building high performance Java services without getting in your way and without forcing you into a large, proprietary framework.
