Tuning the application serving environment

Use this topic to understand the benefits of tuning for optimal performance, the tunable parameters of the major WebSphere® Application Server components, and learn how these parameters affect performance.

Before you begin

WebSphere Application Server provides tunable settings for its major components so that you can adjust the runtime environment to match the characteristics of your application. Applications can run successfully without changing the default values for these tuning parameters. Other applications might need changes, for example, a larger heap size, to achieve optimal performance.

Performance tuning can yield significant gains in performance even if an application is not optimized for performance. However, correcting shortcomings of an application typically results in higher performance gains than are possible with just altering tuning parameters. Many factors contribute to a high performing application.
