Diagnosing Your Application on the JVM

Have you ever had an application behave in an unexpected way and wondered what tools there are for diagnosing it?

This session covers all the tools that ship with the JDK that can be used to diagnose application problems. It looks at a wide range of tools and problems. Among other things, it shows how to monitor heap usage, check for deadlocks, analyze thread dumps, and look at heap contents. The session focuses on demos of the tools and practical tips but also covers the background and details of the implementation of the tools. It also gives a sneak preview of what is coming down the road.

The goal of the session is to provide an overview of the available tools and what you can use them for.
