The industry has seen cutting-edge Application Performance Monitoring tools and infrastructure monitoring tools. These monitoring tools are great at answering the question: 'What is the problem?'' but not, Why does the problem happen? yCrash attempts to answer this question. It captures 360-degree artifacts from your technology stack such as Garbage collection logs, thread dumps, heap dumps,... Continue Reading →
yCrash app is a non-intrusive, secure, instant root cause analysis tool. It captures thread dump, heap dump, GC log, netstat, vmstat, top, and several more artifacts, right when the problem is happening in the production. It instantly analyzes all the artifacts & generates a root cause analysis report in the dashboard. Watch this below video... Continue Reading →
intern() is an interesting function in java.lang.String object. intern() function eliminates duplicate string objects from the application and has potential to reduce overall memory consumption of your application. To understand how string intern() function works you may refer to this interesting blog. Intern strings are stored in a string pool in the JVM memory. JVM... Continue Reading →

Recently we confronted an interesting 'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace' problem in a Microservice application. This Microservice application will run smoothly for initial few hours, later it will start to throw java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Metaspace. In this post let me share the steps we pursued to troubleshoot this problem. Different types of OutOfMemoryError JVM memory has following regions: a. Young... Continue Reading →
The application that we are going to discuss in this post was running on Elastic Beanstalk (EBS) service in Amazon Web Services (AWS). Intermittently this application was throwing HTTP 502 Bad Gateway error. In this post, let’s discuss how we troubleshooted and resolved this HTTP 502 bad gateway error in Elastic Beanstalk service. AWS Elastic... Continue Reading →
c1, c2 compiler threads are created by Java virtual machine to optimize your application's performance. Occasionally these threads will tend to consume high CPU. In this post, let’s learn little more about c1, c2 compiler threads and how to address their high CPU consumption. After reading this post, terminologies like Hotspot JIT, c1 compiler threads,...

There are a good number of articles that articulate functional differences between HashMap, HashTable and ConcurrentHashMap. This post compares the performance behavior of these data structures through practical examples. If you don't have patience to read the entire post, here is bottom line: When you confront with the decision of whether to use HashMap or... Continue Reading →
java.lang.ClassLoader#loadClass() API is used by 3rd party libraries, JDBC Drivers, frameworks, application servers to load a java class into the memory. Application developers don’t use this API frequently. However when they use the APIs such as ‘java.lang.Class.forName()’ or ‘org.springframework.util.ClassUtils.forName()’, they internally call this 'java.lang.ClassLoader#loadClass()' API. Frequent usage of this API amongst different threads at runtime... Continue Reading →
When we launch applications, we specify the initial memory size and maximum memory size. For the applications that run on JVM (Java Virtual Machine), initial and maximum memory size is specified through ‘-Xms’ and ‘-Xmx’ arguments. If Java applications are running on containers, it's specified through ‘-XX: InitialRAMPercentage’ and ‘-XX: MaxRAMPercentage’ arguments. Most enterprises set... Continue Reading →
