• Increase stability and responsiveness by short-circuiting code by Brian D. Goodman, James Kebinger   - [Clicks: 14]
  High volume Web sites often require asynchronous or threaded operations to achieve target performance criteria. While threads in Web containers are considered bad practice, the alternative is for developers to make blocking calls to code they cannot control. It becomes important that dependencies of this nature fail-fast. Goodman and Kebinger present a homegrown short-circuit pattern that ensures threaded execution and completion of a process in a fixed window of time.

• J2EE application performance optimization by Rahul Kuchhal   - [Clicks: 30]
  In this article, Rahul Kuchhal demonstrates how to identify and resolve bottlenecks in a J2EE application. This article covers all the steps required for performance tuning—bottleneck identification, application server and/or Web server tuning, optimal database configuration, database query optimization, and Java code analysis for best performance. The article also briefly introduces the tools that assist in this process. To limit the scope, this article does not cover EJB (Enterprise JavaBeans).
