Abstract: Boost Your Hibernate and Application Performance – Learn How from Ehcache Founder Greg Luck
We will walk through the Spring Pet Clinic as an application example and show you how to tune it for maximum performance, both when using Hibernate and when caching result sets directly.
We will show you from our own benchmarking tests the comparative application performance of Ehcache EX 1.8 versus MySQL, Memcached and a leading In-Memory Data Grid, including the impressive performance increases from the latest Terracotta 3.2 Server Array.
We will also discuss some upcoming features in Ehcache 2.0 such as JTA, Bulk Loading, the new HIbernate 3.3 provider and Write-Behind.
