Production Engineering — HikariCP, SQL Logging & Hibernate Statistics

Every technique from every earlier chapter is only verifiable in a real running application through the specific visibility tools this chapter covers — HikariCP tuning, SQL logging, and Hibernate statistics are your dashboard for an otherwise invisible persistence layer.

Learning objectives

  • Explain what HikariCP does and diagnose connection pool exhaustion back to its most common real root cause.
  • Use SQL logging to verify a fetching-strategy fix (JOIN FETCH, batch fetch) actually works as intended.
  • Enable and interpret Hibernate statistics for query counts and cache hit ratio in a production-monitoring context.
