Spring Boot has most of the important parts of this. And super easy to call a library for anything else, or write 10-20 lines of code yourself.

This is all in a performant, reliable and secure compiled language (Java). Language improvements and modern frameworks have also addressed the long-winded code which used to be an issue.

A.k.a., Kotlin. :p

In all seriousness, though. The only thing PHP still has over Java is that when I say my function takes Foo type, you can't give it null instead.
