What is L1, L2 and L3 Support Engineering


In this blog article, I'm going to explain about the Software support engineering role with my experience. I was a Level 2 and 3 support Engineer during my career.

L1 - Level 1
L2 - Level 2
L3 - Level 3
Ticket - Incident

L1 support includes interacting with customers, understand their issue and create tickets against it. The ticket then routed to the relevant L2 support ( Integration support, Server & Storage support, etc ...). L1 support Engineers have basic knowledge of product/service and skill to troubleshoot a very basic issue like password reset, software installation/uninstallation/reinstallation.

L2 support manages the tickets which routed to them by L1( L2 support also can create tickets against any issue notice by them). They have more knowledge, more experience in solving related complex issues and can guide/help L1 support folks job in troubleshooting. If the solution not provided at this level then escalate to the L3.

L3 is the last line of support and usually comprise of a development team which addresses the technical issues. They are expert in their domain and handle the most difficult problems. They do the code changes, research and develop the solution for challenging new or unknown issues.

Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java

Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java In Java, the Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler is a part of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that improves the performance of Java applications by compiling bytecode into native machine code at runtime. The JIT compiler includes two different compilers, known as the C1 and C2 compilers, each with distinct optimization strategies and purposes. C1 Compiler (Client Compiler) The C1 compiler, also known as the client compiler, is designed for fast startup times and lower memory consumption. It performs lighter and quicker optimizations, which makes it suitable for applications that require quick startup and responsiveness. Key characteristics of the C1 compiler include: Quick Compilation: Prioritizes fast compilation times over deep optimizations. Low Overhead: Consumes less memory and resources during compilation. Profile-Guided Optimization: Ca...

Understanding -XX:+PrintCompilation Output in Java

Understanding -XX:+PrintCompilation Output in Java Understanding -XX:+PrintCompilation Output in Java The -XX:+PrintCompilation flag in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) prints information about the methods being compiled by the Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler. When you enable this flag, the JVM will output a log of compilation events to the standard output. Each line of the output provides information about a specific method being compiled. Here, I'll explain the meaning of the different columns and markers, specifically focusing on the n , s , and % markers as seen in your example. Explanation of Output Columns and Markers Here's a breakdown of what each column and marker means: Timestamp : The time (in milliseconds) since the JVM started when the compilation event occurred. Compilation ID : A unique identifier for each compilation task within the JVM's lifecycle. Optimization Level : The lev...

Java Increment Operations: `n++` vs `n = n + 1` vs `n += 1`

In Java, incrementing a variable by one can be done in several ways: n++ , n = n + 1 , and n += 1 . While these expressions achieve the same end result, they differ slightly in syntax and use cases. Let's explore each one and discuss their performance. 1. n++ Post-Increment Operator : Increments the value of n by 1 after its current value has been used. Common Usage : Typically used in loops and other contexts where the current value needs to be used before incrementing. int n = 5; n++; // n is now 6 2. n = n + 1 Addition Assignment : Explicitly sets n to its current value plus 1. Readability : Straightforward and clear, though slightly more verbose. int n = 5; n = n + 1; // n is now 6 3. n += 1 Compound Assignment Operator : Equivalent to n = n + 1 , but more concise. Usage : Combines addition and assignment into one step. int n = 5; n += 1; // n is...
