Java SIG: Graphing with Entrance & Maximizing Java Performance on Spring/Vmware

Maximize Java application performance and availability on VMware ESX.

Do you know the three deadly sins of running Java virtually? Do you know what the leading cause of performance problems in virtual environments is? These days everything is going virtual, and everyone is looking at cloud as the next big thing. But the journey is not without its share of pitfalls. We'll discuss practical, real-world lessons that avoid them and cover techniques to diagnose, troubleshoot and resolve problems as you encounter them.

We'll also look at Hyperic and Spring Insight, two monitoring tools from SpringSource which let you see exactly how long each portion of a web request takes, set thresholds and take automated actions if problems develop. As a bonus you'll also get an exclusive look at some new technology that makes VMware ESX a better place to run Java than ever.
