safepoint

A deep dive into diagnosing and resolving a production JVM issue where applications would freeze during hourly log synchronization tasks. We explore safepoint analysis, JVM log output blocking, asynchronous logging implementation, and WebFlux optimization to achieve a complete solution.

An in-depth investigation into mysterious JVM safepoint delays after upgrading to Java 17 and implementing centralized log collection with AWS EFS. We discovered how file I/O blocking during log output can freeze entire JVM processes and solved it using async logging and proper WebFlux implementation.
