Real World Web Service Performance

Turbocharge your production web services!

Are your web services suffering from performance issues?   Every web programmer has experienced cases where web services or applications that ran perfectly in test and QA under light load failed (often spectacularly) when put under the load of a production deployment.

Performance has a strong relationship with cost.  If you could either run double the load on the same hardware, or run the same load on half the amount of hardware, the cost impact can be tremendous for your project.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you had a bag of tricks that you could use to perfect your web service performance characteristics under load before you deployed to production, way back in the design and development phases where the cost was lowest?  Maybe you inherited a legacy system that’s suffering from performance problems.  But where do you start?   Wouldn’t you like to be able to identify the problem areas quickly and be ready with some time–tested approaches to fix them?

That’s what this course is about: Practical, real world techniques that are easy to understand and use, that let you get maximum performance from your web services.  You’ll discover new ways of thinking about performance that you will use on every project, saving you time and money.
