(and how to avoid them)
Get to know your app!
- App config confined to app repo
- Easier to start apps locally and in CI
- Higher dev/production parity
- Automatic horisontal scaling
- Overall improved performance at much lower cost
A tale of CPU and memory
OOMKilled!
- CPU request = 1 core
- Memory request = 1G
- Memory limit = 1,3G
- Max heap size = 0,6 * Limit = 0,78
-
requestParams.parallelStream() .map(…)
Have you ever used…
Thread pooling <3 72 CPUs
Java >= 8u131

- UTC is great!
- Except when locales aren't configured
What can we do?
Know your app before you run it!
- (How) do you need to tune the JVM?
- Do you have anything that scales by CPUs?
- Which resources does your app really need?
- Make it easy to do the right thing!
Help your developers!
FROM <container registry>/finntech/java8:8
ENV LC_ALL "no_NB.UTF-8"
ENV LANG "no_NB.UTF-8"
ENV TZ "Europe/Oslo"
ENV JAVA_OPTS -DLog4jContextSelector=org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContextSelector
COPY build/libs/ad-input-server-*.war /app
So: avoid great white sharks by…
- Knowing your app's requirements and dependencies!
- Making it easy to do the right thing
- Expecting failure, and enabling easy rollback
