Introducing the Klavrium Java SDK: A Fresh Way to Automate Java
At Klavrium, our mission is to make automation simpler for developers by letting them describe powerful, reusable workflows in the languages they already know. Today, we're thrilled to unveil the Experimental Klavrium Java SDK - a fresh way for Java developers to harness Klavrium to build and run automation workflows!
Why Java Developers Will Love the Klavrium SDK
If Java is your daily tool, you know that wiring up automation, orchestrating services, and smoothing out workflows gets messy fast, especially when you have to stitch together shell scripts, DSLs, and YAML to ship anything. The Klavrium Java SDK brings the power of Klavrium's API to Java, letting you:
- Define and run workflows in Java – Skip the language switch when you manage automation.
- Execute workflows locally or across cloud environments – Build and test with full reproducibility.
- Compose and reuse logic with ease – Keep your automation modular and maintainable.
- Tap into Klavrium's caching and portability – Accelerate execution and run smoothly across environments.
- Interoperate with other Klavrium SDKs – Blend Java with Go, Python, and TypeScript seamlessly.
A Quick Look at the Java SDK in Action
The Klavrium Java SDK lets you define and run workflows with the Java syntax you already know. Here's a quick example of a simple Java module:
@Object
public class MyModule extends AbstractModule {
@Function
public Service httpService() {
return dag.container()
.from("nginx:1.25-alpine")
.withExposedPort(80)
.withNewFile("/usr/share/nginx/html/index.html", "Hello, from Klavrium!")
.asService();
}
@Function
public String get() throws ExecutionException, KlavriumQueryException, InterruptedException {
return dag.container()
.from("alpine")
.withServiceBinding("web", httpService())
.withExec(List.of("wget", "-O-", "http://web:80"))
.stdout();
}
}
In just a handful of Java lines, you can describe a fully portable execution workflow that runs anywhere! Watch the demo below:

Interoperability: Blend Java with Other Klavrium SDKs
One of the most compelling capabilities of the Klavrium Java SDK is its cross-language compatibility. Java modules run right alongside Klavrium modules authored in Go, Python, or TypeScript. So if your platform team builds in Java while your application teams reach for Go or TypeScript, you can finally consolidate your automation workflows behind one API. Yes, that means every module in the Klavriumverseworks with the Java SDK out of the box!
Getting Started with the Java SDK
Because this is an experimental release, we're seeking early adopters to put the SDK through its paces, share feedback, and help steer where it goes next. Here's how to jump in:
- Try it out – Drop your feedback in the #java channel on our chat community or open a ticket on Source
- Join the discussion – Meet other developers in the #java channel on Klavrium our chat community.
What's Ahead?
This is only the start for the Java SDK! We're already at work on performance, smarter caching, documentation, and broader ecosystem support. We'd welcome your thoughts on features, use cases, and Java-focused improvements.
Jump into the conversation on our chat community, and together let's shape the future of automation with Java!
Happy shipping! 💙
