Java 9 High Performance

By: Mayur Ramgir, Nick Samoylov

Overview of this book

Finally, a book that focuses on the practicalities rather than theory of Java application performance tuning. This book will be your one-stop guide to optimize the performance of your Java applications. We will begin by understanding the new features and APIs of Java 9. You will then be taught the practicalities of Java application performance tuning, how to make the best use of garbage collector, and find out how to optimize code with microbenchmarking. Moving ahead, you will be introduced to multithreading and learning about concurrent programming with Java 9 to build highly concurrent and efficient applications. You will learn how to fine tune your Java code for best results. You will discover techniques on how to benchmark performance and reduce various bottlenecks in your applications. We'll also cover best practices of Java programming that will help you improve the quality of your codebase. By the end of the book, you will be armed with the knowledge to build and deploy efficient, scalable, and concurrent applications in Java.

A transparent understanding of JSON in Java

JSON processing is the use of portable APIs in terms of creating JSON instances that are able to parse information, as well as generate data objects by reading them off from a number of sources, including internet searches in a live manner.

JSON is extremely capable because it is swift, occupies little space, and is able to perform data exchange, regardless of the programming language barrier. It is also easy to understand and provides an excellent mode of common understanding for both the programming and the virtual machine.

There are different values that JSON can generate, but it is important to understand that all JSON instances use two distinct structures of objects and arrays. An object is created whenever there is a need to create names and values that are not present in an orderly manner. The second type is the array. The arrays...
