Chapter 1. Achieving Performance, Scalability, and Availability Objectives
Building a highly available and scalable system that performs well is no trivial task. In this chapter, we will look into the reasons why this is the case, and discuss what can be done to solve some of the problems.
I will also explain how Coherence can be used to either completely eliminate or significantly reduce some of these problems and why it is a great foundation for scalable applications.
