Thundra Debugging Platform Supports Java/Spring Hot Fix Capabilities

Cloud monitoring provider Thundra has extended its platform by offering a plugin to debug and make fixes remotely for application code without disrupting application execution times. While Thundra previously allowed for monitoring and debugging applications and microservices, Thundra’s Sidekick plugin goes further by allowing for hotfixes to be implemented directly to live code. Developers can thus rely on Thundra to diagnose application-performance issues and then use Thundra Sidekick with the Java integrated development environment IntelliJ IDEA to add and view tracepoints to the problem code without affecting the code execution.

Ozal described how monitoring systems “has had and still has its unique challenges,” in need of alternatives for monitoring and fixing problems without impeding the execution times of applications functions.

The complexity of applications continues to increase, and developers are expected to manage complexity before and after the application is driven to production,” Ozal said.
