Chapter 7. Performance, scalability, and<br />

high availability<br />

This chapter discusses items to consider when implementing <strong>WebSphere</strong><br />

<strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> <strong>V7.0</strong> so that the environment performs well, is highly scalable,<br />

and provides high availability.<br />

The nature of these three non-functional requirements make them related to<br />

each other. For example: to increase the performance of your environment you<br />

need to add additional resources. To be able to add additional resources<br />

efficiently you need a scalable design and workload management to spread the<br />

requests across all available components. By adding additional resources in<br />

most cases you invent redundancy which is a prerequisite for high availability.<br />

This chapter contains the following sections:<br />

► What is new in <strong>V7.0</strong><br />

► Scalability<br />

► Performance<br />

► Workload management<br />

► High availability<br />

► Caching<br />

► Session management<br />

► Data replication service<br />

► <strong>WebSphere</strong> performance tools<br />

► Summary: Checklist for performance<br />
