Sharing insights on technical analysis and exchange, making life better through technology.
This guide walks you through setting up a SpringBoot application, configuring Logback, installing and configuring Loki, Promtail, and Grafana, and comparing the lightweight Loki stack with the traditional ELK solution for efficient log collection and visualization.
This article explains how Spring's declarative transaction management works, why the @Transactional annotation can unexpectedly become ineffective, and presents twelve typical scenarios—such as internal method calls, non‑public methods, final/static modifiers, proxy issues, and incorrect propagation settings—along with practical solutions to ensure reliable transaction handling.
This guide walks you through integrating SpringBoot with Prometheus and Grafana, covering dependency setup, YAML configuration, a test controller, Prometheus scrape jobs, and Grafana dashboard creation to achieve real‑time application monitoring and performance analysis.
This article explains five common multi‑tenant implementation patterns—independent databases, shared database with separate schemas, shared tables, hybrid approaches, and containerized isolation—detailing their isolation levels, cost implications, scalability, and suitable use cases for SaaS applications.
Redis evolved rapidly, with versions up to 5.x handling all core CRUD commands on a single worker thread, while Redis 6 introduced multi‑threaded network I/O to leverage multi‑core CPUs, yet still processes core business commands single‑threadedly for performance and simplicity, as explained with diagrams.
This article explains how character encoding works—from ASCII and its extensions to Chinese GB2312 and GBK, through Unicode's UCS‑2, UCS‑4, and the versatile UTF‑8—showing why mismatched encodings produce garbled text and why UTF‑8 is the default in Spring Boot.
Redis, a non‑relational database, implements transaction-like behavior using commands such as MULTI, EXEC, DISCARD, and WATCH, allowing queued execution, optimistic locking, and various rollback granularities, though its semantics differ from traditional relational database transactions.
This article investigates whether the JVM terminates when a thread encounters an OutOfMemoryError, demonstrating through Spring Boot controllers and multithreaded examples how main and child threads, daemon settings, and explicit OOM handling affect JVM shutdown behavior.
This article breaks down zero‑copy data transfer techniques—write+read, mmap+write, sendfile, sendfile + SG‑DMA, and splice—showing how they reduce CPU copies and context switches to boost I/O performance in modern operating systems.
This article explains the concept of distributed locks and compares three common implementation approaches—using a database, Redis, and ZooKeeper—detailing their mechanisms, advantages, drawbacks, and suitable scenarios for ensuring consistent access to shared resources in distributed systems.
