Distribution and communication between applications and services is a central concept in modern application architectures. In order to profit from distribution you have to keep some basic principles in mind – otherwise you can easily run into performance and scalability problems. During development these problems often do not surface. Then suddenly in load testing or [...]

A very common performance anti-pattern is wrong deployment of components. This often comes when applications are deployed as they are designed at a conceptual leve. Most web-based applications today are build based on the Model-View-Controller concept. This means that components are seperated into :
A view part responsible for presenting a user interface to the end [...]

Remoting is a key element in modern enterprise applications . While it can help to increase scalabilty and performance it might also become a bottleneck. Especially in highly transactional applications the network easily becomes the bottleneck.
I examined possible performance optimizations in Java RMI following the guidance given in the book Java RMI. The [...]
