Performance Issues in Enterprise Systems

Enterprise Frameworks provide services to help developers meet performance
goals, however…



Often poor performance is caused by poor design, not poor code


Example:High inter-component communication -> poor performance
Complex distributed enterprise systems are not properly understood







Performance not guaranteed
Performance issues may still arise
Applications tend to be large
Complex execution envronment (e.g. application servers)
Peformance implications of design decisions may be unknown
Parts of application outsourced
Commmercial Off the Shelf (COTS) Components
Time to market constraints
Performance is often a major issue for enterprise systems

Limitations of current tools
Generate massive amounts of data

Multi User Systems (1000’s of users)
May overwhelm developers trying to locate bottlenecks
e.g. Profilers




Give no reason for, or solution to, performance issues

Do not detect potential bottlenecks

May occur if system properties changes

Performance Design and Deployment Antipatterns
Performance
Engineering
Laboratory

Design patterns – document recurring solutions
to standard software developent problems

Antipatterns – document common mistakes
made during software development

Suggest solutions/refactorings

Performance patterns/antipatterns solely focus
on performance concerns

Performance antipattern discovery helps
developers to locate and treat performance
issues within the system

Helps developers form a sense of performance
intuition

Solution Overview
Automatically Detect and Assess Performance Design and Deployment Antipatterns in Component Based
Enterprise Systems
•
Monitoring: Obtains performance information from a running application
•
Analysis: Uses analysis techniques(e.g. Data Mining) to make sense of large volumes of data
•
Detection: Rule Engine - Antipatterns are described in terms of rules
•
Assessment:Performance models applied to ranks antipatterns in terms of their performance impact on the system
•
Presentation: Creates UML models of the system augmented with performance data, highlighting discovered antipatterns. Diagrams are
created at different levels of abstraction (following the MDA paradigm).

Advantages of Approach
•
Antipatterns clearly defined (categorised) and documented
–
–
•
Automatic detection and assessment ….
–
–
–
–
•
Takes onus away from developer having to sift through large volumn of performance data
Makes sense of large amount of performance data rather than merely presenting it to user
Developers may gain performance Intuition
Highlights potential bottlenecks/antipatterns
Developers Can Reason about their Performance Design & Deployment Settings
–
–
•
The better understood antipatterns become, the less likely developers will be to make such mistakes, and
the easier it will be for them to recognize the antipatterns if they exist.
Examples/Test Results included in antipattern description
previous tools analyse performance programming errors rather than design errors
allows developers to assess their design (Is my design optimal???)
New detection approach uses runtime (dynamic) analysis
–
–
Traditional design recovery/reverse engineering techniques use static analysis
source code often unavailable
•
•
–
Fits well with modern software development processes
•
–
Performance
Engineering
Laboratory
COTS components
Outsourcing
Require a running implementation of the system at each iteration of the development process (e.g. XP)
Need run-time performance data to reason about performance (performance antipatterns have dynamic
properties)

Sample Rules and Facts
Antipattern: Stateless Sessions-a-plenty
If A is a Session Bean
& If A has no transactional methods
& If A has small (e.g. <3) no of methods
& If A does not require security settings
& If A does not have a relationship with any entities or DB
(Facts) Data Required:
• Component Types
• Components Methods
• Transactions
• Security Settings
• Component Relationships (from call paths)

Sample Rules and Facts
Example Association Rule:
(Do not confuse the Association Rule with the RULES in the Rule Engine)
employee.getName= > employee.getAddress , employee.getAge ,
employee.getID
Confidence 90%
Support 20%
Antipattern: Fine Grained Remote Calls
This antipattern describes a situation where fine grained remote calls are being used. Often Fine grained calls can be
eradicated using a session façade.
Rule which describes Antipattern (loaded into Rule Engine):
If A is an association rule
–
& If A has two or more calls
–
& If A has more than X% confidence
–
& If A’s method calls belong to remote components
RULE ENGINE FIRES =>fine grained remote calls Antipattern Detected !!!!!!!!
