[VDCLUJ2023] Ana-Maria Mihălceanu - Calibrate Garbage Collection on the Ground and Run Your Java App

Struggling to understand which garbage collector fits the bill for your application needs? Will your choice affect the performance forecast for your Java system once containerized and in production? Throughout this session, we’ll examine two kinds of applications, CPU or I/O intensive, and gradually improve the GC configurations by evaluating the throughput, latency, and footprint criteria and correlating those with metrics gathered in Prometheus This session aims to put in context how to choose and tune the GC algorithms to influence the performance of your containerized Java application.
