Redbook Abstract
IBM SanFrancisco Performance Tips and Techniques, SG24-5368-00
  Abstract
A SanFrancisco-based application can obtain good performance, but there are, and always will be, certain limits to this performance. To make a wise decision, it is important to have several pieces of information. First, what is the requested appropriate performance? Second, what is the performance that SanFrancisco can live up to for the type of application? If there is a match between these, take into consideration that the framework constantly improves its performance and a better performing version may be available by the time of deployment.

If the appropriate performance is reachable, and SanFrancisco is chosen for development of the application, the real performance work begins. You can achieve performance expectations by avoiding bad practices. A series of reasons can lay at the basis of a poor performing application. This redbook helps you to understand these reasons and offers solutions or alternatives when possible.

It is obvious that other characteristics and features of the framework are far more determining factors in choosing the IBM SanFrancisco framework as a base to build applications than its performance. Although performance should not be a major reason to vote against it, this redbook only considers performance issues.

The redbook is primarily intended for IBM SanFrancisco application developers, application architects, and performance consultants. It guides you through the different areas of performance and helps you to analyze a performance problem with the use of various tools, shows how application design patterns can influence performance, and describes the IBM SanFrancisco environment. It also provides suggestions for optimal performance, leads you through the technique of mapping the relational database to objects, and provides a comprehensive list of coding techniques for better performance of SanFrancisco applications.
