Workshop: Tweet"Production ready software"
In this tutorial, you will learn how to create applications that survive the rigors of life in production. Too often, project teams aim to pass QA instead of aiming for success in production. Testing is not enough to prove that your software is ready for continuous availability in the corrosive environment of the Internet.
During this tutorial, you will receive an understanding of the architecture and design patterns that can produce high availability in distributed, multithreaded systems such as those based on Java EE, .Net, or Ruby on Rails. You will also learn about the antipatterns that can sabotage your systems availability and capacity.
Learn how to:
- Avoid common design antipatterns that sap capacity and availability.
- Apply stability patterns to produce highly available systems.
- Design software for production networks.
- Create applications that administrators love.
- Design your applications for easy deployment and change.
