Written in Henry Liu's clear, concise style, Java Application Performance and Scalability gets right to the point. With clearly explained concepts, most pertinent theories, precise step-by-step procedures, and large volume of illustrative charts and tables with highly reliable data supporting behind, you gain quickly the necessary knowledge and skills for being able to cope with Java application performance and scalability issues without having to resort to more experienced professionals or expensive external consultants. Specifically, it helps you learn the following knowledge and skills that are essential for you to become more effective in contributing to the success of your organization:* What you need to know at minimum about the architecture of modern hardware so that you can make smart decisions on when you should pour your time on your application and when you can just throw in more advanced hardware to get by.* What you need to know about garbage collection theories in general and how they are implemented with widely used Java Virtual Machines like HotSpot JVMs.* Precise methodologies, procedures, and programs that you can start to use immediately to help you profile and tune your Java applications.* How you can design and build performance and scalability into your product proactively without having to face tough retrofitting decisions or even torrents of customer escalations later on.In addition, the book contains interesting data for your reference, associated with oops compression, CMS garbage collection tuning, DoEscapeAnalysis, G1 versus CMS comparison, etc., all based on full scale, rigorous performance and scalability tests with real products.

Drawing on the authors knowledge of the Java programming language and their extensive experience working on performance issues, the book reveals common mistakes and misconceptions concerning the performance characteristics of Java technologies. It offers overall development strategies and concrete, battle-tested techniques to dramatically improve the performance of applications constructed with the Java programming language. Java Platform Performance highlights the importance of integrating performance evaluation into the application development process and discusses measurement techniques. The book then presents practical tactics for enhancing application performance in the areas of I/O, RAM footprint, small object management, algorithms, data structures, Swing, and deployment. Specific topics covered include: *Incorporating performance evaluation into the development process *Profiling and benchmarking *Building scalable, fast Swing GUIs *Using high-speed I/O *Computing and controlling the RAM footprint *Reducing the number of classes *Eliminating temporary objects *Selecting high-performance algorithms and data structures *Using Java native code and applet packaging efficiently

Coding and testing are often considered separate areas of expertise. In this comprehensive guide, author and Java expert Scott Oaks takes the approach that anyone who works with Java should be equally adept at understanding how code behaves in the JVM, as well as the tunings likely to help its performance. You’ll gain in-depth knowledge of Java application performance, using the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and the Java platform, including the language and API. Developers and performance engineers alike will learn a variety of features, tools, and processes for improving the way Java 7 and 8 applications perform. Apply four principles for obtaining the best results from performance testing Use JDK tools to collect data on how a Java application is performing Understand the advantages and disadvantages of using a JIT compiler Tune JVM garbage collectors to affect programs as little as possible Use techniques to manage heap memory and JVM native memory Maximize Java threading and synchronization performance features Tackle performance issues in Java EE and Java SE APIs Improve Java-driven database application performance

Java application performance is tied pretty heavily to the underlying Java Virtual Machine, and the new 1.4 version of Java has significant changes that mean previously used performance tips and strategies may no longer work. Significantly revised and expanded, this second edition not only covers Java 1.4, but adds new coverage of JDBC, NIO, Servlets, EJB and JavaServer Pages. Suitable for intermediate and advanced Java developers, this text also covers JDBC, RMI/CORBA, Servlets, JavaServer Pages and custom tag libraries, XML, internationalization, JavaMail, Enterprise JavaBeans and performance tuning. It should be a useful resource for teaching how to create a tuning strategy, how to use profiling tools to understand a program's behaviour, and how to avoid performance penalties from inefficient code, making them more efficient and effective. The result is code that's robust, maintainable and fast.

One of the biggest challenges for organizations that have adopted microservice architecture is the lack of architectural, operational, and organizational standardization. After splitting a monolithic application or building a microservice ecosystem from scratch, many engineers are left wondering what’s next. In this practical book, author Susan Fowler presents a set of microservice standards in depth, drawing from her experience standardizing over a thousand microservices at Uber. You’ll learn how to design microservices that are stable, reliable, scalable, fault tolerant, performant, monitored, documented, and prepared for any catastrophe. Explore production-readiness standards, including: Stability and Reliability: develop, deploy, introduce, and deprecate microservices; protect against dependency failures Scalability and Performance: learn essential components for achieving greater microservice efficiency Fault Tolerance and Catastrophe Preparedness: ensure availability by actively pushing microservices to fail in real time Monitoring: learn how to monitor, log, and display key metrics; establish alerting and on-call procedures Documentation and Understanding: mitigate tradeoffs that come with microservice adoption, including organizational sprawl and technical debt
