- For performance mostly, Kestra rely a lot on Java thread to be able to handle a very large workload

- Because the application is built on top of Kafka, and Kafka Streams that is only available on Java

- Because the java ecosystem is very large and there is a lot good library to handle a lot of workload

- Because I love strong typing and the language (but no matter for the user, just a personal pleasure :D)
