Moving into Production Checklist

You are about to complete your existing project , all the functionality is in place , all unit tests are passing , profiling done and there are no visible bottlenecks , benchmarks been executed and the system seems to scale and perform nicely: You (think you) are ready to move the system into production to be available for public consumption.

There is a fundamental difference between the testing environment and the production environment in terms of the configuration and the tuning of the GigaSpaces running environment.

The Moving into Production Checklist gives the GigaSpaces users a comprehensive list of recommendations to be executed on the different GigaSpaces system components (client and server side) to make sure he/she performed all the necessary steps to have a stable running application.

The Moving into Production Checklist includes a discussion about the relevant environment settings that need to be configured , references to locations within the GigaSpaces documentation that should be reviewed and a set of basic and advanced tuning recommendations the reader should consider before declaring his/her system as a production ready.

Enjoy!

Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year.
