Abstract

From the Book:Does your website have enough capacity to handle its busiest days? Will you lose potential customers because your web application is too slow? Are you concerned about your e-business becoming the next cautionary tale highlighted on the evening news? The authors of this book combine their experiences with hundreds of public and private websites worldwide to help you conduct an effective performance analysis of your website. Learn from the experts how to design performance tests tailored to your website's content and customer usage patterns. In addition to designing better tests, the book provides helpful advice for monitoring tests and analyzing the data collected. Are you adding load, but not seeing increased throughput? Do some machines in your environment work much harder than the others? Use the common symptom reference to isolate bottlenecks and improve performance.Since many sites use a Java application server to power their web applications, the authors discuss the special considerations (garbage collecting, threading, heap management, to name a few) unique to the Java environment. Also, the book covers the special performance requirements of sites supporting handheld devices, as well as sites using Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs).Designed to benefit those with a little or a lot of performance testing background, this book helps you get the most from your performance analysis investment. Learn how to determine the best your site will do under the worst of conditions.
