A Practical Guide to Java Remote Debugging
By Eugen Paraschiv
Introduction to Debugging
Troubleshooting a problem on a remote server, especially in production, is
not an easy task. Sometimes it involves debugging the application code
directly on the server.
But the production servers are usually run in a strict environment, where not
all convenient developer tools are available.
In this article, you'll discover how to configure a running web server and
debug your application using standard facilities provided by the Java
platform.
Caveats
First off, if you try to connect to a remote running Java server which you
did not specifically configure for debugging, you'd most likely fail. This
means that the configuration steps should be taken in advance.
On the other hand, you wouldn't want to always keep the production server
running with debugging configuration enabled, a... (more)

A Deep Dive into the Core Metrics of the Java Virtual Machine
By Eugen Paraschiv
Overview of JVM Metrics
In this article, we'll cover how you can monitor an application that runs on
the Java Virtual Machine by going over some of the critical metrics you need
to track. And, as a monitoring tool, we'll use Stackify Retrace, a full APM
solution.
The application we'll monitor to exemplify these metrics is a real-world Java
web application built using the Spring framework. Users can register, login,
connect their Reddit account and schedule their posts to Reddit.
How JVM Memory Works
There are two important types of JVM memory to watch: heap and non-heap
memory, each of these with its own purpose.
The heap memory is where the JVM stores runtime data represented by allocated
instances. This is where memory for new objects comes from, and is released
when the Garbage Colle... (more)
