Debugging Modern Applications: Advanced Techniques
Today’s applications are designed to be always available and serve users 24/7. Performing live debugging on such applications is akin to doctors operating on a patient.

Operating on such entities requires more dexterity on the developer’s part, to ensure that the software application lives on while being debugged and improved continuously.
