CFUnited Preview - Caching and Optimization

7/15/10 6:00 PM
SRA International

Dan Wilson will be previewing his CFUnited presentations.

Cache Me If You Can

Caching is a double edged ninja sword. Apply it well, and you achieve your goals. Apply it poorly, and bad things happen! In this presentation we will cover a number of techniques used at today's leading high performance web applications like Facebook, Twitter and Shopzilla. We'll look at ways to handle caching at the client level, the server level and anywhere else in between. When you leave this presentation you will have a good idea of how to add the right caching to your applications.

Get the Lead Out - Practical Optimization

How do you get the most out of your applications? The advice is spread far and wide. In this presentation we'll do a live walkthrough of an application, analyze common bottlenecks and fix them. Along the way we'll learn about the dangers of microoptimization, database testing, load testing, the scientific method and other important techniques designed to make a real difference in application throughput. If you have concerns about scalability in ColdFusion or you have an application that isn't performing as well as you would like, come to this session!

Please RSVP - food and drinks will be provided! Most likely CFBeer afterwards!
