Observability and Profiling - not only for Java developers by Miro Wengner
Cloud computing brings new challenges to application development. The concept of Microservices is pushing on distributed solutions design. The inevitable consequence of this movement is the increasing importance of understanding the application’s behavior. The ability to obtain meaningful data contributes significantly to the application uptime and stability. In this talk we examine, over examples, conventional observability and profiling techniques available for the popular JVM frameworks (Ktor, Spring, Quarkus, etc.). Together we explore and discuss the importance of the topic and its challenges. After this talk, you have witnessed useful evaluation techniques in action!
