Java EE 8 High Performance : Master techniques such as memory optimization, caching, concurrency, and multithreading to achieve maximum performance from your enterprise applications. EPUB

Get more control of your applications performances in development and production and know how to meet your Service Level Agreement on critical microservices. Key FeaturesLearn how to write a JavaEE application with performance constraints (Service Level Agreement—SLA) leveraging the platformLearn how to identify bottlenecks and hotspots in your application to fix themEnsure that you are able to continuously control your performance in production and during developmentBook DescriptionThe ease with which we write applications has been increasing, but with this comes the need to address their performance.

A balancing act between easily implementing complex applications and keeping their performance optimal is a present-day need.

In this book, we explore how to achieve this crucial balance while developing and deploying applications with Java EE 8.

The book starts by analyzing various Java EE specifications to identify those potentially affecting performance adversely.

Then, we move on to monitoring techniques that enable us to identify performance bottlenecks and optimize performance metrics.

Next, we look at techniques that help us achieve high performance: memory optimization, concurrency, multi-threading, scaling, and caching.

We also look at fault tolerance solutions and the importance of logging.

Lastly, you will learn to benchmark your application and also implement solutions for continuous performance evaluation. By the end of the book, you will have gained insights into various techniques and solutions that will help create high-performance applications in the Java EE 8 environment. What you will learnIdentify performance bottlenecks in an applicationLocate application hotspots using performance toolsUnderstand the work done under the hood by EE containers and its impact on performance Identify common patterns to integrate with Java EE applicationsImplement transparent caching on your applicationsExtract more information from your applications using Java EE without modifying existing codeEnsure constant performance and eliminate regressionWho this book is forIf you're a Java developer looking to improve the performance of your code or simply wanting to take your skills up to the next level, then this book is perfect for you.
