Performance Tuning and Configuration

A collection of tools and controls allow you to monitor and adjust Apache Geode performance.

• Improving Performance on vSphere

  This topic provides guidelines for tuning vSphere virtualized environments that host Apache Geode deployments.

• Performance Controls

  This topic provides tuning suggestions of particular interest to developers, primarily programming techniques and cache configuration.

• System Member Performance

  You can modify some configuration parameters to improve system member performance.

• Slow Receivers with TCP/IP

  You have several options for preventing situations that can cause slow receivers of data distributions. The slow receiver options control only peer-to-peer communication using TCP/IP. This discussion does not apply to client/server or multi-site communication, or to communication using the UDP unicast or multicast protocols.

• Slow distributed-ack Messages

  In systems with distributed-ack regions, a sudden large number of distributed-no-ack operations can cause distributed-ack operations to take a long time to complete.

• Socket Communication

  Geode processes communicate using TCP/IP and UDP unicast and multicast protocols. In all cases, communication uses sockets that you can tune to optimize performance.

• UDP Communication

  You can make configuration adjustments to improve multicast and unicast UDP performance of peer-to-peer communication.

• Multicast Communication

  You can make configuration adjustments to improve the UDP multicast performance of peer-to-peer communication in your Geode system.

• Maintaining Cache Consistency

  Maintaining data consistency between caches in a distributed Geode system is vital for ensuring its functional integrity and preventing data loss.
