Dynatrace news. I love data. I have spent virtually my entire career looking at data. Synthetic data, network data, system data, and the list goes on. In recent years, the amount of data we analyze has exploded as we look at the data collected by Real User Monitoring (RUM), meaning every session, every action, in every region and so on. As much as I love data, data is cold, it lacks emotion.

Previous posts have discussed partitioning, for example, a partitioned memory object [link] and how a latch maintains the desired access (exclusive, shared, …) [link]. Quick Refresher Over Partitioned Protection/Locking. Acquiring shared access requires only the local partition be acquired (lightweight scalability).

How well does your Java perform? Iteration Performance. There are many views on how to iterate with high performance. The traditional way of iterating in Java has been a for-loop starting at zero and then counting up to some pre-defined number: private static final int ITERATIONS = 10_000; @Benchmark public int forUp() { int sum = 0; for (int i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++) { sum += i; } return sum; }.

Recently I’ve been playing around with Netlify and as a result I’m becoming more familiar with caching strategies commonly found with content delivery networks (CDN).

To track the login statistical information, enable the sp_configure value ‘common criteria compliance enabled ‘ setting and restart SQL Server. The sys.dm_exec_sessions DMV is one way to query the statistical login information. The rows shown in this example belong to the sa user on my system. The values are different because the values are obtained when the specific session was created (at login time for the individual session.).
