The Java Persistence API (JPA) is used in most Java applications to interact with a relational database. One of its most popular implementations is the Hibernate ORM, because it uses object-relational mapping to abstract database interactions and makes implementing simple CRUD operations very simple. But this abstraction also has its downsides. Hibernate uses a lot of internal optimizations and hides all database interactions behind its API.

With Node.js applications and services, spotting the performance bottlenecks in your applications is deciding to take real advantage of the speed and reliability that Node.js has to offer. A CPU profile is a way to understand how your application is executed, what functions devour what percent of CPU time, and provides enough information for a more precise application diagnostic.

Buying software is often the answer for busy engineering teams in search of a quick solution with minimum aftercare. But while your team may be sure of the problem, how do you go about searching for a product to fix it? Far from being the 'easy option', there is a lot you need to consider before you invest in a bought solution – user experience, cost comparisons, and support features to name a few. Let’s explore some of the considerations when making a good decision.

Logging helps developers in reducing errors and cyber-attacks. The application is designed to be dynamic. We can't always predict how an application will react to data changes, errors, or program changes. Logging in allows us to better understand our own programs. For all applications, an absolute logging solution is essential. A good logging system increases the application's stability and makes it easier to maintain on the production server.

Deploying mobile apps can be complex. How can you ensure that new versions are released easily, quickly, and reliably? In this article, we will take you through seven ways to optimize your release process.
