Performance Topics
Collected thoughts about software and site performance ...
Web performance matters. Responsive sites can make the online experience effective, even enjoyable. A slow site can be unusable. This site is about online performance, how to achieve and maintain it, its impact on user experience, and ultimately on site effectiveness.
Foundations of performance
The first group of categories deal with the foundations of performance and of performance management. These are:
- Business Perspectives on Performance
- Performance and Usability
- Foundations of Performance
- Performance Management or SLM
- Software Engineering
- Standards (Apdex, ITIL, etc.)
Performance management activities
Next are the principal activities of Web performance management:
- Performance Objectives
- Optimization and Tuning
- Measuring Performance
- Reporting on Performance
- Web Operations
- Availability Management
Wisdom series
I have created some special categories to highlight and discuss particularly wise and memorable insights:
Technologies
Then there are categories for technologies -- at present just two specific and one general category, but others will be added as needed:
Publications, news and events
Next come three categories covering educational resources, then two covering news:
Anything else
Finally, there are social issues, miscellany and a meta-category, for posts about this blog.
And if these categories aren't enough to cover the subject matter, I'll add more. So if you think I'm missing something important, just write to me (cloosley@uprightmarketing.com) about it. I'm always interested to hear from anyone who thinks that performance matters.
