Diagnosing and Resolving Garbage Collection Pauses in the ServiceNow MID server

Garbage collection pauses in Java applications can lead to performance problems like slow response times, freezes, and higher delays. This article explains how to diagnose these pauses in the ServiceNow MID server environment and provides tips on reducing them by using efficient garbage collectors to improve application performance.

Java ZGC algorithm Tuning

ZGC is a specialized Java garbage collector that efficiently manages large heaps with minimal pause times, ideal for memory-intensive applications. This post details tuning parameters like heap size, concurrent GC threads, and NUMA support, emphasizing the importance of analyzing GC logs for performance optimization to enhance application efficiency.
