Topic: Java without GC Pauses: Keeping up with Moore's Law and living in a virtualized world
Speaker: Gil Tene, CTO and Co-Founder, Azul Systems
Commodity memory and compute capacities have far outpaced the ability of Java platforms to consume them effectively. Application instances are able to utilize only a small and shrinking fraction of a common server's abilities before responsiveness, consistency and service level issues become hard to bear. The behavior of Garbage Collection is at the heart of this accelerating trend, and new trends towards virtualized systems and Cloud deployments can be viewed either as further threats, or as opportunities for innovative solutions to a lingering problem.
In this webinar, Gil Tene (CTO, Azul Systems) details the practical considerations & limitations of current garbage collected systems, discusses the importance of solving the GC problem once and for all at enterprise scale, explains how virtualization technologies can actually be used to deliver a robust solution, and leads us to a Java world with no more GC pauses.
