Power and Performance in Enterprise Systems is a guide to solving performance problems in modern systems. Beginning with the necessary architectural background as a foundation, the book demonstrates the proper usage of performance analysis tools in order to pinpoint the cause of performance problems, also including best practices for handling the common performance issues that those tools identify. The text presents ideas to improve architectures running mobile, desktop, or enterprise platforms and explains the importance of parallelism and profiling to determine the source of performance issues. It finishes with case studies that highlight how all of these methodologies are combined to produce measurable results. Provides expert perspective from a key member of Intel's optimization team on how processors and memory systems influence performance Presents ideas to improve architectures running mobile, desktop or enterprise platforms Demonstrates best practices for designing experiments and benchmarking throughout the software lifecycle Explains the importance of parallelism and profiling to determine the source of performance issues Includes case studies which describe the thought process, analytical methodologies, and corrective measures to solve real codebase problems.
