This time she gives a deep dive into the internals of Zing – the world’s most scalable JVM and elastic Java runtime. Learn what you can do to eliminate key Java scalability limitations and allow your applications to grow to 100s of GBs in real time without hitting painful pause times. And, discover how Zing eliminates garbage collection issues, how tiered compilation works, and how Zing achieves non-intrusive production visibility. Video also available.
Java GC and the Application Memory Wall
The "memory wall", first predicted in the mid 1990's in a paper titled "Hitting the Memory Wall: Implications of the Obvious", was supposed to have emerged by now. However, the typical application instance still only utilizes 5-10% of a modern server's capacity, and the percentage is dropping. In this Webinar, Gil Tene (CTO, Azul Systems) will introduce the notion of the Application Memory Wall, and discuss the dominant factors limiting the scale and performance of modern server application instances. Gil will show how GC behavior has come to dominate application scale and architecture decisions, highlight the resulting constraints and challenges in effectively utilizing current- generation servers, and discuss innovations that may make the 'Application Memory Wall' disappear in the near future.
