In this final chapter, we want to provide you with some guidelines and recommendations on how to maximize the performance and scalability of an ADF application. Always consider these recommendations in a production environment.
There are two types of changes that can be applied to an ADF application to tune it for performance and scalability. These types are as follows:
Configuration settings tuning: This means using different contextual parameters in the
web.xml
file or in any configuration file to tune different settings of your ADF application.Component level tuning: This means using a component's attributes properly to increase its performance and minimize its load time.
Most of the recipes in this chapter are recommendations and will not need any application running; however, a few recipes have step-by-step procedures, which you can find inside the Chapter 10
folder of the book's Git repository.
