The Java Performance Tuning Workshop training course covers the same content as the Java Performance Tuning Training course. However, it includes 2 additional days of customer application-specific tuning.
The Java Performance Tuning workshop examines the philosophies, tools, and processes to successfully tune a Java application. Assuming most students have not experimented with performance tuning, the course begins with an introduction of performance tuning, exploring what is and is not considered performance tuning. The general performance tuning discussion is made relevant through the examination of the Java platform and the Java Virtual Machine architecture. With the appropriate foundation laid, the course examines common tuning tools and their applications. The meat of the course is found in the performance tuning process discussion and is made practical through a hands-on examination of general tuning best practices and heap tuning.
Course Summary
Workshops are instructor-led lab-intensives focused on the practical application of technologies through the facilitation of a project-related lab. Workshops are just the opposite of Seminars. They deliver the highest level of knowledge transfer of any format. Think wide (breadth) and deep (depth).
