After working on ZGC for a decade, I’m happy to announce that I’m publishing a book about ZGC in JDK 25. It ships 22 May (www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/1...) and is being published by Taylor & Francis. You should get a copy if you want to learn more about ZGC. It’s available for pre-order now.
Today, May 22, my book about ZGC is finally ready and available to order! I can recommend reading it if you want to learn more about the magic nature of ZGC. You can order it here (among many places): www.routledge.com/The-Z-Garbag...
