This article introduces Bistoury, a one‑stop Java application diagnostic solution that improves upon Arthas by adding a web UI, multi‑machine support, integrated agent‑proxy architecture, custom classloaders, online debugging, per‑thread CPU monitoring, and heap object statistics.
This article details Qunar's comprehensive approach—leveraging automated functional testing, an intelligent recommendation platform, and a localized development workflow—to cut release fault rates below 0.4‰, slash testing effort, and dramatically improve overall development and operational efficiency.
This article describes how Qunar's technology center defined, measured, and managed system complexity through a custom modeling framework, implemented a dashboard for continuous monitoring, and established an anti‑corruption governance process that limits complexity growth to maintain low maintenance costs across hundreds of applications and systems.
This article details the background, challenges, migration plan, automation, and performance‑tuning techniques used to relocate a petabyte‑scale Elasticsearch logging cluster from one data center to another, highlighting practical lessons and measurable improvements in stability and migration speed.
This article describes Qunar's use of traffic recording and replay technology for fault isolation, performance optimization, and upgrade migration, detailing the evolution of their Java‑based agents, the end‑to‑end testing workflow, full‑link stress‑test integration, and the measurable business and performance outcomes.
This article describes the background, technology selection, architecture design, data flow, monitoring, logging, and trace collection mechanisms of Qunar's self‑built distributed tracing system, analyzes major performance problems such as Flume interruptions, Kafka bottlenecks, Flink back‑pressure, and presents concrete solutions including sliding‑window throttling, CGroup limits, and JavaAgent instrumentation, ultimately improving trace connectivity and system observability.
This article describes the challenges of migrating a long‑running monolithic database to a sharded architecture, presents a two‑stage smooth migration strategy using double‑write, diff verification, and mapping‑key techniques, and details the componentized design, core implementation, and configuration of a reusable sharding framework built on MyBatis and Spring.
In this interview, Qunar VP Sun Bin reflects on his 13‑year journey, the technology operations center’s pandemic‑driven innovations, the company’s AI committee and big‑data strategies, and the philosophy of pure technical branding within the ITCP alliance.
This article presents a detailed case study on how Qunar's front‑end team reduced the Time to Interactive of the hotel‑detail page by introducing pre‑fetching, cache‑key redesign, view‑model batching and longer cache lifetimes, achieving up to a 70% TTI improvement on Android devices.
The QTest and QClient technical journey event on May 23, 2023 features multiple expert talks on performance testing, AI‑enhanced frontend engineering, Serverless visualisation, user‑behavior replay, and a new React framework, along with registration details, promotional items, and recruitment information.
