Collecting Debug Information from Containerized Applications
Howdy everyone! It's your favorite Debug Engineer, Will Aftring back again, this time talking about containers. This blog post will assume that you have a fundamental understanding of Windows containers. If that isn't the case, then then I highly recommend reading Get started: Run your first Windows container. Many developers and IT Admins are in the midst of migrating long standing applications into containers to take advantage of the myriad of benefits made available with containerization. NOTE: Not all applications are able to equally take advantage of the benefits of containerization. It is another tool for the toolbox to be used at your discretion. But moving an existing application into a container can be a bit tricky. With this blog post I hope to help make that process a little bit easier for you.Understanding Lock Contention in Windows Performance Analyzer (WPA)
Hi everyone, this is Will Aftring with the Windows Debug team. I was debugging an application performance issue and thought “this is a great example of lock contention”. For this post we will be using the Windows Performance Analyzer (WPA) to review data collected with the Windows Performance Recorder (WPR). For the sake of keeping this post focused I won’t go in depth on WPR but there are plenty of resources on how to get started. Getting Started Windows Performance Recorder | Microsoft Docs
