Java Made (Somewhat) Simple
summary
Covers practical Java 8 and 11 specifics: lambdas/streams, module system fallout, and classloader load/link/initialize phases; shows that Java 10 respects cgroups so JVM auto-sizes heap and that Java 11 adds HTTP/2 client and TLS 1.3 plus lightweight flight recorder. Recommends JLink to shrink runtimes (example: 59 MB minimal runtime), explains Java Time’s of/from/with API, highlights Micrometer for metrics and SLF4J for logging, and flags ZGC (experimental) and Epsilon (no GC).
