Title: Java at Scale - What Works and What Doesn't Work Nearly so Well
Speaker: Matt Schuetze, Product Manager, Azul Systems
Abstract: Java gets used everywhere and for everything due to its efficiency, portability, the productivity it offers developers, and the platform it provides for application frameworks and non-Java languages. But all is not perfect; developers both benefit from and struggle against Java's greatest strength: its memory management. In this session, Matt will describe where Java needs help, the challenges it presents developers who need to provide reliable performance, the reasons those challenges exist, and how developers have traditionally worked around them. He will then discuss where Zing fits in the spectrum of use cases where large memory and predictable performance dominate essential application characteristics.

Kubernetes enables possibilities to develop cloud native microservices or decompose traditional applications making them more technologically advanced with the help of containers. Currently, most of the Kubernetes solutions are offered on top of VMs and there is a room for further improvements. Implementing nested architecture of application containers running inside system containers opens additional flexibility of resource allocation and management, accelerates provisioning of the clusters and pods, as well as cuts the overall costs. In this presentation we cover the possibilities of running a Java-based application inside Kubernetes cluster with nested container architecture, what configurations should be taken into account, and how to overcome the barriers on the way to more efficient Kubernetes hosting.

In this presentation, Gil Tene, CTO of Azul Systems, discusses the benefits of using in-memory, in-process, and in-heap index representations with heap sizes that can now make full use of current commodity server scale. He also compares throughput and latency characteristics of the various architectural alternatives, using some of the configurable choices available in Apache Lucene™ 4.0 for specific examples.
Understanding Application Hiccups - and What You Can Do About ThemAzul Systems Inc.
In this presentation, Gil Tene (CTO, Azul Systems) will introduce simple, non-obstrusive methods for measuring and characterizing platform "hiccups" during application execution. Using the new jHiccup open source tool, Gil will demonstrate and chart commonly observed behaviors of idle, mostly idle, and busy systems, as well as common workload types that experience outliers due to garbage collection pauses and other runtime-induced delays. After demonstrating how simple, non-obtrusive measurement can establish a clear "best case" baseline for any expected application responsiveness, Gil will discuss the important things to look for in such measurements, as well as the common pitfalls experienced early in characterization attempts.
Are your application's tail-latencies holding it back from delivering its near-real time SLOs? Do your in-memory processing platform's long pauses only get worse with increasing heap sizes? How about those latency spikes causing variability in your end-to-end latency for your multi-tiered distributed systems?
If any of the above keep you up at night, then have no fear as Z Garbage Collector (GC) is here and is production ready in JDK 15.
In this talk, Monica Beckwith will cover the basics of Z GC and contrast it with G1 GC (the current default collector for OpenJDK JDK 11 LTS and tip).
Azul Systems. Are you interested in learning what a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is and what it does for your Java applications? This presentation will provide insight into the inner workings of a Java Virtual Machine and some drill down on what compilers and garbage collectors do, so that you don't have to worry about it while programming your Java application. In particular, you will learn about common optimizations, well established garbage collection algorithms, and what the current biggest challenge with Java scalability is today.
GARBAGE COLLECTOR Automatic garbage collection is the process of looking at heap memory, identifying which objects are in use and which are not, and deleting the unused objects. An in use object, or a referenced object, means that some part of your program still maintains a pointer to that object. An unused object, or unreferenced object, is no longer referenced by any part of your program. So the memory used by an unreferenced object can be reclaimed. In a programming language like C, allocating and deallocating memory is a manual process. In Java, process of deallocating memory is handled automatically by the garbage collector.
Choosing Right Garbage Collector to Increase Efficiency of Java Memory UsageJelastic Multi-Cloud PaaS
With microservices, cloud hosting, and vertical scaling in mind, we'll compare the top Java garbage collectors to see how efficiently they handle memory resources. Being configured smartly, Java can be cost-effective for all ranges of projects — from cloud-native startups to legacy enterprise applications. And the selected garbage collection algorithm is one of the main foundational bricks here, as its settings can influence the whole project. In this presentation, we share our experiences in tuning RAM usage in a Java process to make it more elastic and gain the benefits of faster scaling and lower total cost of ownership (TCO). The provided results of testing G1, Parallel, ConcMarkSweep, Serial, Shenandoah, ZGC, C4 and OpenJ9 garabage collectors while scaling Java applications vertically will help you to make the right choice for own projects.

How Databases Work - for Developers, Accidental DBAs and ManagersEDB
Quite often, developers and managers find themselves in a situation where their database isn't performing well. Due to a lack of understanding of inner workings of the databases, they try to solve the problem using unrelated solutions.
In this talk we will walk through the various operations a database system (Postgres, Oracle, and others) perform while serving the application queries. We will also see how those operations relate to the operations done by OS, filesystem, and the storage disks.

Webinar: Zing Vision: Answering your toughest production Java performance que...Azul Systems Inc.
Solving Java performance issues in production can be frustrating. You’re left in the dark about what could be causing the problems because standard Java tools have too much performance overhead for production use. They’re designed for development or pre-production testing and realistically can’t be used to monitor a business-critical application during peak loads, which is when the problems occur!
Zing Vision is your flashlight. Its low overhead metric collection is built into Zing, Azul’s high performance virtual machine, and designed to run in production with zero performance overhead. At last, you can see your applications’ operation at the thread level, track memory usage, find “hot” code and even save data for later analysis. In this webinar, Joseph Coha, Azul Systems Senior Staff Engineer, describes how Zing Vision works, shows sample data and discusses how you can use this information to find and fix your most stubborn production performance issues. He also tells you how you can download and try Zing and Zing Vision with your current applications to see for yourself how far you can take the performance of your existing apps.

Presentation by Dr. Cliff Click, Jr. Mention Java performance to a C hacker, or vice versa, and a flame war will surely ensue. The Web is full of broken benchmarks and crazy claims about Java and C performance. This session will aim to give a fair(er) comparison between the languages, striving to give a balanced view of each language's various strengths and weaknesses. It will also point out what's broken about many of the Java-versus-C Websites, so when you come across one, you can see the flaws and know that the Website isn't telling you what it (generally) claims to be telling you. (It's surely telling you "something," but almost just as surely is "not realistically" telling you why X is better than Y).

The Java Evolution Mismatch - Why You Need a Better JVMAzul Systems Inc.
Functionality is great, but what about performance? Java started life as a toy platform and quickly became an enterprise tool. Early on, evolution in performance and scalability went hand in hand with functionality improvements. However, virtually all subsequent improvements to the Java platform were in features and scope, with basic performance remaining largely unchanged. The result is that modern Java apps are powerful and flexible, but their performance can be iffy. Application instances now have a hard time consuming even a small fraction of entry level modern servers without incurring unacceptable and detrimental effects. In this presentation, Azul CTO Gil Tene explains how the Zing Java runtime platform eliminates the evolution mismatch and allows enterprises to consistently and reliably power their applications, making full use of modern server capabilities.
Nonblocking (NB) algorithms are something of a Holy Grail of concurrent programming--typically very fast, even under heavy load, they come with hard guarantees about forward progress. The downside is that they are very hard to get right. This presentations authors worked on writing some nonblocking utilities (open sourced on SourceForge in the high-scale-lib project) and have made some progress toward a coding style that can be used to build a variety of NB data structures: hash tables, sets, work queues, and bit vectors. These data structures scale much better than even the concurrent JDK™ software utilities while providing the same correctness guarantees. They usually have similar overheads at the low end while scaling incredibly well on high-end hardware. The coding style is still very immature but shows clear promise. It stems from a handful of basic premises: You don't hide payload during updates; any thread can complete (or ignore) any in-progress update; use flat arrays for quick access and broadest-possible striping; and use parallel, concurrent, incremental array copy. At the core is a simple state-machine description of the update logic.
With multicore systems becoming the norm, every programmer is being forced to deal with multi-CPU memory atomicity bugs: data races. Data-race bugs are some of the hardest bugs to find and fix, sometimes taking weeks on end, even for experts. There are very few tools to help here (mostly just academic implementations). The authors of this presentation are at the forefront of multicore Java technology-based systems and daily have to debug data races. They have a lot of hard-won experiences with finding and fixing such bugs, and they share them with you in this presentation.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
