Debugging Java and Scala

For engineers, architects, and DevOps teams, distributed architectures and reactive applications make pinpointing and fixing production errors in Java and Scala code an increasingly difficult task. In this hands-on, practical video, JVM and debugging expert Tal Weiss reviews the practices Java and Scala developers can use to spot, profile and correct production application issues. He provides a set of advanced techniques that can be put to immediate use for quickly profiling and debugging live servers, and resolving critical errors without impacting performance.
