I invite all of TheServerSide community to attend 'Design, Build and Test for Performance,' a highly informative and engaging virtual seminar taking place next Wednesday, May 20th. Many of your peers invested in performance and scalability have already signed up to attend this exclusive event.
See all of the details and register now.
I'll be kicking off the event at 11 a.m. EDT with a session titled 'The Need for Speed - Why Performance Matters.' This session examines why it's critical to address performance as early as possible in the application lifecycle, and where to look for common performance failings in your code. The remainder of the day delves into proven performance tooling/strategies, real-world solutions in use today, and lively panel discussion on setting and measuring requirements.

Expert speakers on the panel include Susan St. Clair (an independent consultant), Frank Cohen (author and founder of PushToTest), Theresa Lanowitz (founder of Voke, Inc) and representatives from HP, dynaTrace and Precise Software.
I'll be moderating the panel to ensure that attendees walk away with a few key points, including how to 1) Define and test performance requirements; 2) Determine where common bottlenecks occur in distributed applications, and how to best identify and address those bottlenecks; 3) Understand why performance issues should be found and corrected early in the application development lifecycle; 4) Learn how to test application scalability, and what steps to take when an application doesn’t scale; 5) Understand why it is important for development and operations to follow application performance as the application goes into production.
I hope you can participate next week. It's free to attend. Here is the link to

See you there,
