Tuning WebLogic Applications

Many aspects of WebLogic’s performance were already covered in earlier chapters. We examined the impact of various features on the flexibility of your application setup and discussed the trade-offs involved. We’ve looked at various session persistence mechanisms, proxy web servers, the benefits of JDBC connection pools and data sources, the collocation and transaction optimizations that occur when using EJBs, the load-balancing and failover features in a WebLogic cluster, the different ways to reduce the overheads of network traffic, the issues involved when JMS connection factories are used in a transacted session, and the various packaging and deployment options that also make a difference in application performance. Many of these performance enhancements are the outcome of adjusting either the configuration settings supported by WebLogic-specific deployment descriptors or those configuration options that can be viewed and modified from the Administration Console.

We won’t revisit all of these issues here. We presume that you have read (or browsed through) the previous chapters and now have a good understanding of how to build applications on WebLogic Server, making effective use of the supported J2EE services.
