JVM GC Tuning in containerised environment

Details

When we are running applications in languages like Java, Kotlin, Scala or Clojure, the underlying stack on which it runs is JVM. Although most of the JVM settings work out of the box due to ergonomics, it is essential to understand the parameters while tuning it. In today's world we run most of our applications in some form of container environment like kubernetes or docker. Container environments are a bit different from regular VM or server racks, we need to configure different parameters for them to work effectively.
We will discuss following points,

  • What are things that need to be considered while running JVM applications in containers?
  • What are the challenges in debugging the application in a container environment?
  • What are the GC algorithms available to tackle different types of workloads?

Take Aways From The Talk

  • To learn how JVM handled garbage collection
  • How to tune JVM application in container environment
  • How to tackle issues in container environment
  • How to choose right algorithm for the application workload

Pre-requisites for Attendees

  • Familiarity with JVM based languages
  • Familiarity with container environment
  • Production experience will be useful but not required
