The J2EE platform is quickly emerging as a standard for building enterprise applications. Although the platform has been designed to support high-performance applications, many organizations are discovering that their applications are failing to meet agreed upon performance criteria.This talk addresses the common causes of performance problems in J2EE applications. Beginning with a discussion of the differences between performance and scalability, this presentation separately discusses both types of problems in J2EE applications, illustrated with some common real-world scenarios. We will also show how these types of problems can be detected and diagnosed in both a load-testing and production environment.
