Advanced Java Performance Tuning

Course Description

Advanced Java Performance Tuning develops practical capability across jvm execution, jit compilation, garbage collection, metrics, and baselines and cpu profiling, heap analysis, thread dumps, locks, and concurrency diagnostics. The learning path connects Oracle configuration or development decisions to business ownership, data quality, security, controls, and measurable acceptance criteria.

The later modules address gc tuning, heap sizing, allocation control, latency, and throughput and code, database, network, load-test, production-triage, and regression tuning. Learners trace dependencies, execute controlled workflows, collect JFR recordings, profiler snapshots, GC logs, heap dumps, thread dumps, response-time percentiles, throughput, and repeatable load-test results, and distinguish configuration defects from data, access, integration, or operational failures.

By completing the course, participants can support a Java service with latency spikes, rising memory use, and intermittent throughput collapse under production-like load. They also create a practical improvement plan covering validation, exception handling, rollback, ownership, documentation, and production support.

What You Will Learn

• Establish jvm execution, jit compilation, garbage collection, metrics, and baselines for a controlled Advanced Java Performance Tuning workflow.
• Investigate misleading benchmarks, memory leaks, lock contention, excessive allocation, long GC pauses, database bottlenecks, and unsafe production tuning when working with jvm execution, jit compilation, garbage collection, metrics, and baselines.
• Build cpu profiling, heap analysis, thread dumps, locks, and concurrency diagnostics for a controlled Advanced Java Performance Tuning workflow.
• Protect misleading benchmarks, memory leaks, lock contention, excessive allocation, long GC pauses, database bottlenecks, and unsafe production tuning when working with cpu profiling, heap analysis, thread dumps, locks, and concurrency diagnostics.
• Run gc tuning, heap sizing, allocation control, latency, and throughput for a controlled Advanced Java Performance Tuning workflow.
• Balance misleading benchmarks, memory leaks, lock contention, excessive allocation, long GC pauses, database bottlenecks, and unsafe production tuning when working with gc tuning, heap sizing, allocation control, latency, and throughput.
• Confirm code, database, network, load-test, production-triage, and regression tuning for a controlled Advanced Java Performance Tuning workflow.
• Standardize misleading benchmarks, memory leaks, lock contention, excessive allocation, long GC pauses, database bottlenecks, and unsafe production tuning when working with code, database, network, load-test, production-triage, and regression tuning.

SkillDynamo Training Approach

Delivery combines Oracle-specific demonstrations, guided hands-on exercises, scenario analysis, validation checklists, troubleshooting drills, and a final improvement plan. Learners document assumptions, settings, data, outputs, exceptions, corrective actions, rollback needs, evidence, and operational responsibilities.
