Demystifying OSGi - Java Colombo Meetup - 24 January 2013

The 6th Java Colombo Meetup [1] was held on 24th January 2013 (Last Thursday) at WSO2 premises. The topic on that day was "Demystifying OSGi" and it was presented by Sameera Jayasoma and Pradeep Fernando.

It was the second time I participated for this meetup. Both Sameera (@sameerajayasoma) and Pradeep (@pradeepfn) presented really well and they answered every question asked.

I joined WSO2 recently and we also had internal training sessions on OSGi & OSGi-based WSO2 Carbon Platform [2]. I would say Sameera and Pradeep are experts on OSGi.

Following is the presentation. You can also go through it to get an idea of OSGi.


I must also thank Prabath (@prabath) for organizing the Java Colombo Meetup and I admire his effort to bring the Sri Lankan Java developer community together.

Here are some photos of the event!

Next Meetup:

The next meetup [3] will be the 1st Anniversary of Java Colombo Meetup and it is scheduled to be held on 15th March.

There will be a workshop on OpenShift and keynote by Dr. Sanjiva Weerawarana (@sanjiva)

      Finding how many processors

      I wanted to find out the processor details in my laptop and I found out that there are several ways to check. For example, see The RedHat community discussion on  Figuring out CPUs and Sockets . In this blog post, I'm listing few commands to find out details about CPUs. I'm using Ubuntu in my Lenovo ThinkPad T530 laptop and following commands should be working any Linux system. Display information about CPU architecture $ lscpu Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 4 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-3 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 2 Socket(s): 1 NUMA node(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 58 Model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3520M CPU @ 2.90GHz Stepping: 9 CPU MHz: 1199.988 CPU max MHz: 3600.0000 CPU min MHz: 1200.0000 BogoMIPS: 5787.1...

      Java Mission Control & Java Flight Recorder

      Last year, I got two opportunities to talk about Java Mission Control & Java Flight Recorder. I first talked about " Using Java Mission Control & Java Flight Recorder " as an internal tech talk at WSO2 . I must thank Srinath for giving me that opportunity. After that, Prabath also invited me to do a talk at Java Colombo Meetup . Prabath, Thank you for inviting me and giving me the opportunity to talk at the Java Colombo Meetup! I'm also very excited to see that Marcus Hirt , the Team Lead for Java Mission Control has mentioned about the Java Colombo Meetup in his blog post: " My Favourite JMC Quotes ". It's so nice to see "Sri Lanka" was mentioned in his blog post! :) From Marcus' Blog Here are the slides used at the meetup. Java Colombo Meetup: Java Mission Control & Java Flight Recorder from Isuru Perera Marcus Hirt's blog posts really helped me to understand JMC & JFR concepts and his tutorials were very helpful...

      Flame Graphs with Java Flight Recordings

      Flame Graphs Brendon D. Gregg , who is a computer performance analyst , has created  Flame Graphs to visualize stack traces in an interactive way. You must watch his talk at USENIX/LISA13 , titled Blazing Performance with Flame Graphs , which explains Flame Graphs in detail. There can be different types of flame graphs and I'm focusing on  CPU Flame Graphs  with Java in this blog post. Please look at the Flame Graphs Description  to understand the Flame Graph visualization. CPU Flame Graphs and Java Stack Traces As  Brendon  mentioned in his talk, understanding why CPUs are busy is very important when analyzing performance.  CPU Flame Graphs  is a good way to identify hot methods from sampled stack traces. In order to generate CPU Flame Graphs for Java Stack Traces , we need a way to get sample stack traces. Brendon has given examples to use jstack  and Google's lightweight-java-profiler . Please refer to his perl program on g...
