Performance Tuning And Optimizing ASP.NET Applications (with source code)

This book is for intermediate to advanced .NET developers who need answers to the hard questions on how to build high-performance ASP.NET applications. Authors Jeffrey Hasan and Kenneth Tu focus on how to make good design decisions for performance. They discuss how to develop applications with performance in mind. And they pay special attention to the tools available to developers to quantify and monitor performance issues and to diagnose performance problems more quickly.

Performance Tuning and Optimizing ASP.NET Applications provides a detailed review of how to tune and optimize ASP.NET applications for maximum performance. Currently, the market is being flooded with a slew of books on how to write .NET applications, but so far there has not been a title that is devoted to the more advanced topic of tuning and optimizing ASP.NET applications. There will be an increasing demand for this information as developers get comfortable with the technology and begin completing first versions of their ASP.NET applications. They will be looking for a book that dispenses with basic language tutorials, and instead tackles the real-world issues of performance.

Intermediate to experienced developers, who are either working on an ASP.NET development project or are about to start one, will find this book helpful for its concise information on how to design and write ASP.NET applications for optimal performance. The book focuses on performance tuning from a development perspective, rather than an infrastructure perspective. However, the book does address specific development issues that arise in common server architectures, such as Web farms.

This book focuses on building high-performance Web applications using Microsoft's ASP.NET technology. Pure and simple. The technical book market today is being flooded with a slew of titles on how to build applications with .NET technology, and many are undoubtedly very good. But the majority of these titles simply take a "how-to" approach on how to program with the .NET Framework. They often pay little more than cursory attention to the real-world issues and challenges that developers face. The learning curve for .NET clearly starts with understanding the Common Language Runtime (CLR) and the new Class Framework because they enable you to actually build your application. But from there, the learning curve shifts toward more complex and less neat issues such as design decisions and the relative performance of one technical approach over another. At this level, it is no longer a question of how you implement a feature.
