Software Performance Engineering

This book introduces the concept of Software Performance Engineering throughout the development process. Software performance yields from a wide range of factors: from hardware through coding standards, runtime frameworks, design patterns, quality assurance and testing, and system architectural patterns, to name a few. This book takes a holistic view of the entire software development lifecycle, learning each of its phases, to understand the technologies, techniques, and tools available, and how we can use them to improve the behavior and performance of our system.
