Starts off with an overview of the JDK monitoring and profiling tools landscape.This chapter deals with in depth coverage of the tools associated with performance monitoring and profiling in depth. The rest of the chapter deals with Apache JMeter and thoroughly covers web service, web application and database scripts with the help of succinct examples.It explores different facets of performance testing like types, components, tools, benchmarking etc along with an explanation of common testing terminologies and a discussion around performance testing in a Cloud environment.It deals with Performance Testing on a whole Delves into some of the concurrency constructs available in Java EE – Async invocations, Singleton beans, non blocking I/O etcĬhapter 3- Getting Familiar with Performance TestingĬhapters 1 and 2 provided a good foundation and this chapter builds upon it.Provides a brief overview of Java EE 7 – its specifications and features.Exploration of the JVM Garbage Collector and its policies.Discussion of the JVM memory structure (as laid out by the JVM specification) and details around the Java HotSpot VM.Two primary topics which are covered are the JVM fundamentals and Java EE 7 (yes!) It lays a strong emphasis on strengthening the fundamentals associated with the Java Platform which are directly related to performance. This is of great value for someone who is relatively new to the concept of Performance tuning and monitoring and allows her to get a decent head start.Ĭhapter 2 – Understanding Java Fundamentals Provides a quick peek into the all the components/layers of web applications and their properties which are critical from a performance standpoint – from the client end right down to the DB serverĪll in all, this lesson does a great job of getting things rolling and setting up the reader for what’s coming next.It goes on to differentiate typical application modes (standalone, thick and thin) along with a brief summary.Classifies different types of performance related issues based on phases of discovery.This chapter introduces us to the world of Java EE performance tuning.
Let’s take a peek and see what each one has to offer.Ĭhapter 1 – Getting Started With Performance Tuning The book is well organized and divided into twelve chapters. More about him here What does the book cover? The book has been authored by Osama Oransa. Last but not the least, the reader can dig into some Performance Tuning Tips (EJB, JPA, Servlets, JSF, Java SE) and apply the knowledge gained from the book in tuning a sample Java EE application hands-on! Who has written this book? The book delves into the topics of Tuning a Java EE application and its various facets (JVM, App Server, Web Server, the OS) along with a primer on Designing High performance Java EE applications. Topics like CPU, Memory and Thread Profiling have dedicated chapters and have been covered in great detail. The author guides us through some common performance issues and their symptoms along with a detailed insight of Java monitoring and profiling tools (in the JDK, IDEs etc). concurrency) and dives into the nitty-gritty of Performance Testing in Java. The book provides a quick fire tour of Java EE 7, familiarizes the reader with the basics of JVM (memory model, garbage collection. It starts off with basics of Performance Tuning and gives us an insight into the various kinds of performance related issues which one might face in the context of enterprise grade, distributed web (Java EE) applications.
It focuses on tuning, monitoring and optimizing the performance of Java EE applications in particular. This is a review of the book Java EE 7 Performance Tuning and Optimization What is this book about?Īs the title clearly suggests, this book deals with Performance Tuning.
