A system, a method, and a computer program product for deployment of objects are disclosed. At least one configuration for deploying of at least one artifact during runtime of an application is defined. The configuration includes at least one dependency for the artifact. The configuration is applied to the artifact. The artifact is deployed based on the applied configuration during runtime of the application. The configuration can include at least one of the following: a default configuration for the artifact and an explicit configuration for the artifact.

User-configurable database artifacts

A system, a method, and a computer program product for deployment of objects are disclosed. Using a deployment infrastructure of a database system, a deployment container for deployment of at least one object at runtime of an application is generated. The container includes at least one artifact for the object and a container schema indicative of at least one dependency associated with the object. At least one deployment privilege is associated based on the container schema with the artifact for the object. The artifact of the deployment container is deployed based on the associated deployment schema during runtime of the application. The container can be an isolated container and an access privilege to an object can be requested based on a synonym for deployment purposes.

Database level containers

A thread dump viewer presents information for a plurality of threads. The information about the threads can be presented in a table view. The thread dump viewer can allow the user to expand a thread in the table view to see a stack trace for the thread. The stack trace may include information for objects that are associated with other threads. For example, the thread may be waiting on a lock object locked by another thread. The thread dump viewer can present information about the associated thread based on a user interaction. This process can be continued iteratively, allowing the stack traces of interrelated threads to be seen to arbitrary depths.

Thread dump viewer

A system, a method, and a computer program product for deploying objects are disclosed. A file containing a plurality of artifacts for deploying during runtime of an application is defined. At least one dependency for at least one artifact in the plurality of artifacts is determined based on the defined file. A database object for implementation during runtime of the application is created based on the determined dependency. At least one change to the database object during runtime of the application is implemented. The artifact is deployed during runtime of the application based on the implemented change to the database object.

Deployment process plugin architecture

A system, a method, and a computer program product for deploying of objects are disclosed. At least one file containing a plurality of artifacts for deploying during runtime of an application is defined. Each artifact in the plurality of artifacts includes at least one object in the plurality of objects required to be deployed during runtime of the application. At least one dependency for at least one artifact in the plurality of artifacts is determined. An execution order for deployment of the plurality of artifacts is generated. The plurality of artifacts is deployed in accordance with the generated execution order.

Deployment of database objects

In an example embodiment, a communication is received from a software tool. The communication may be intended for a virtual machine and may contain an identification of a virtual file. A virtual file can then be retrieved using the identification. The virtual file defines a file socket, the file socket providing a communications channel for stream-based communications. Then the file socket can be established as a communications channel between the software tool and the virtual machine based on the virtual file.

Communication infrastructure for virtual machines

A thread dump analysis tool analyzes a series of thread dumps and identifies one or more potential problems in the application from which the thread dumps were generated. Hints regarding the potential problems are presented. The hints can be generated based on relative values generated by analysis of sequential dumps. The hints may be hints that could not be generated by analysis of a single thread dump. Other hints may be hints that are enhanced by analysis of multiple thread dumps, whose importance is made clearer by appearance in multiple thread dumps, or that are unchanged in detection, importance, or both, by the use of multiple thread dumps. The hints can then be presented in order of importance. Additionally or alternatively, hints below a certain threshold of importance can be hidden.

System diagnostics with thread dump analysis

A system and computer-implemented method for determining a runtime of a thread of an application. Synchronization events for a first thread of an application executing on the computer system are received, the synchronization events including at least a first synchronization event and a second synchronization event for the first thread. A first difference between a synchronization event timestamp of the first synchronization event and the synchronization event timestamp of the second synchronization event is calculated. A second difference between an accumulated timestamp of the first synchronization event and the accumulated timestamp of the second synchronization event is calculated. A runtime of the first thread of the application is calculated as a difference between the first difference and the second difference.

System and method for identifying contention of shared resources in a runtime system

The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing remote debugging of a cloud application across a wide area network. A method includes transmitting, from a remote communication device to a cloud computing device, instructions to adjust a running application to a debugging mode; receiving, at the remote communication device from a server coupled to the cloud, aggregated thread data in a data packet by using a second debugging data protocol different from the Java Debug Wire Protocol; receiving a debugging command and applying the debugging command to the cloud application running in the debugging mode.

Debugging applications in the cloud

A system and computer-implemented method for reporting a synchronization event in a runtime system of a computer system. A synchronization primitive in a runtime system of the computer system is monitored. A synchronization operation performed on the synchronization primitive by a thread in the runtime system is detected. An enumerator for the synchronization primitive is incremented when the synchronization operation satisfies predetermined criteria. A synchronization event that includes data relating to the synchronization operation performed on the synchronization primitive is reported.

System and method for reporting a synchronization event in a runtime system of a computer system

Implementations of the present disclosure provide methods including receiving one or more specifications at a virtual machine that is executed using one or more processors, each specification indicating one or more methods and one or more parameters to be traced, the one or more parameters corresponding to the one or more methods, executing an application, the application calling a method of the one or more methods using the virtual machine, determining a subset of the one or more received specifications, the subset corresponding to specifications that are applicable to the method, generating an entry event corresponding to the method based on the subset, the entry event comprising event data including values of the one or more parameters, and reporting the entry event.

Tracing values of method parameters

The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing remote debugging of a software or cloud application across a wide area network. A method includes transmitting, from a remote communication device to a client or cloud computing device, instructions to adjust a running application to a debugging mode; receiving, at the remote communication device from a server, aggregated thread data in a data packet by using a second debugging data protocol different from the Java Debug Wire Protocol; receiving a debugging command and applying the debugging command to the application running in the debugging mode.

Debugging remote software applications across WAN connections

Implementations of the present disclosure provide methods including executing a profiling session to profile one or more applications running on a virtual machine executed on a server, collecting profiling data over a first time interval during the profiling session, receiving user input generated at a client device, the client device being in communication with the server, in response to the user input, generating a snapshot corresponding to a subset of the profiling data, the snapshot being identified based on a second time interval that is within the first time interval, and transmitting the profiling data to generate a snapshot view for display on a client device, the snapshot view corresponding to the subset of the profiling data.

Profiling data snapshots for software profilers

Systems and methods for rating interestingness of profiling data subsets are described. Profiling data including a set of nodes associated with at least one executed computer program is received. The profiling data contains a first set of scores corresponding to the resource consumption of the nodes. A second set of scores is identified from the profiling data, wherein a score of the second set of scores indicates a combined resource consumption of a corresponding node of the set of nodes and at least one other node of the set of nodes related to the corresponding node. An interestingness rate is evaluated for groups of nodes of the set of nodes based on the corresponding scores. The group of nodes with the highest, or satisfactory high value of the calculated interestingness rate is presented.
