So cool.  Just saw the latest Sun Microsystems home page.

Sun have just released their first in depth Oracle Coherence blue-print (white paper) documenting the architecture, performance and scalability impacts seen in a large application.  As a comparison, the document outlines the performance and scalability of an application both with and without using Oracle Coherence.  Apart from [...]

It’s hard to believe but another year has passed and it’s time again for Oracle Open World in San Francisco. Like last year, it’s going to be big.  Apparently San Francisco is bracing itself for an influx of 85,000 or so delegates, not all talking about Coherence obviously, but there will be a lot more than [...]

Be among the first to take a look Oracle Coherence 3.5, the new release that enables applications to work with massive data sets in-memory. Listen to this webcast by Cameron Purdy, VP of Development and creator of Coherence, to hear how the new features and functionality can:

• Support multi-terabyte data grids while reducing the operational complexity of large deployments

• Improve service levels by automatically detecting and correcting service disruptions

Whilst setting up a development environment for Coherence is relatively trivial, planning and moving this into production requires considerable testing and careful consideration to ensure the full benefits of Coherence are realized. The following observations and guidelines are meant to supplement those outlined in the Coherence Production Checklist, Performance Tuning and Best Practices guides, not to replace them. These documents should be read prior to reading this document, as the contents of these documents are not going to be replicated here.
