27 Development Rules for High-Performance webMethods Solutions Integration platforms rarely fail because of a single architectural mistake. Performance degradation is usually the cumulative effect of many small design and development decisions, repeated thousands or millions of times per day. The following 27 development rules were established based on real-world analysis of webMethods Integration Server solutions, production incidents, GC investigations, and performance tuning exercises. They are intended to be used as development norms, not optional tips. ...
