Understanding Request Latency with Profiling

It can be hard to figure out why response times are high in Java applications. In my experience, when engineers investigate this type of issue, they typically use one of two methods: They either apply a process of elimination to find a recent commit that might have caused the problem, or they use profiles of the system to look for the cause of value changes in relevant metrics.

Bare metal vs virtual machines vs containers: Which is the right infrastructure for me?

There are three main infrastructure types to consider when hosting and deploying applications: Bare Metal, Virtual Machines (VMs), and Containers, each with its own advantages and disadvantages depending on your use case. The three technologies are not mutually exclusive however, as both VMs and containers run on top of bare metal servers, while containers can also be deployed inside VMs.
