Optimizing Java_Practical Techniques for Improving JVM Application Performance-O’Reilly(2018) How do you define performance? Most developers, when asked about the performance of their application, will assume some measure of speed is requested. Something like transactions per second, or gigabytes of data processed…getting a lot of work done in the shortest amount of time possible. If you’re an application architect, you may measure performance in broader metrics. You may be more concerned about resource utilization than straight-line execution. You might pay more attention to the performance of connections between services than of the services themselves. If you make business decisions for your company, application performance will probably not be measured in time as often as it is measured in dollars. You may argue with developers and architects about resource allocation, weighing the cost of devops against the time it takes to do the company’s work.
