Improving .NET Application Performance and Scalability provides an approach to engineering applications for performance and scalability.
This guide provides a principle-based approach for engineering performance and scalability throughout your application life cycle.
The guidance is task-based and presented in parts that correspond to life cycles, tasks, and roles. It is designed to be used as a reference or be read from beginning to end, and is divided into five parts:
- Part I, "Introduction to Engineering for Performance," outlines how to apply performance considerations throughout your application life cycle.
- Part II, "Designing for Performance," gives you an approach for architecting and designing for performance, using performance modeling. The design guidelines in this part include a set of guiding principles and technology-agnostic practices.
- Part III, "Application Performance and Scalability," provides deep platform knowledge across the Microsoft® .NET Framework technologies.
- Part IV, "Database Server Performance and Scalability," presents a consolidation of the most important techniques for improving database performance.
- Part V, "Measuring, Testing, and Tuning," provides a process, tools, and techniques for evaluating performance and scalability.
This .Net guide is valuable for anyone who cares about application performance objectives. It is designed to be used by technologists from many different disciplines, including architects, developers, testers, performance analysts, and administrators. The guidance is task-based, and is presented in parts that correspond to the various stages of the application life cycle and to the people and roles involved during the life cycle.
