Java Performance Training Course
This course is designed for Java developers seeking to create high-efficiency applications. Upon client consultation, the training can be adapted to a specific tool version tailored for individuals focused solely on identifying performance issues, such as testers and administrators, where Java programming skills are not a prerequisite.
Throughout the training, participants will gain insights into the methodologies and modern tools essential for developing efficient Java software. Learners will identify common performance pitfalls, and acquire skills in benchmarking, profiling, tuning, and memory analysis, including optimization techniques for collections and I/O operations. The concepts and tools covered are universally applicable across various project technologies, as the emphasis remains on language-level performance, utility libraries, and built-in frameworks. The tuning section explores the JVM parameters supplied by Oracle.
This course is available as onsite live training in Botswana or online live training.Course Outline
