Ballerina is an open-source programming language designed for cloud-native applications, emphasizing network interaction and data integration. It combines features of both imperative and declarative programming, simplifying the development of distributed systems with built-in support for RESTful services, gRPC, GraphQL, and other network protocols.
About Ballerina
Ballerina was created in 2017 by the team at WSO2 to address the complexities of building cloud-native and integration-centric applications. It aimed to simplify network programming and data integration by providing a language that natively supported modern communication protocols and patterns.
Strengths of Ballerina include its built-in support for network protocols, ease of integration, and cloud-native features. Weaknesses include limited adoption and a smaller community compared to more established languages. Competitors include Go, Rust, and JavaScript (Node.js), which also target cloud-native and network-centric development.
