Overview

TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition allows customers to leverage the power and functionality of TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition in order to build cloud-native applications with an API-first approach and deploy it to container-based PaaS platforms such as Cloud Foundry™, Kubernetes and OpenShift or to similar Docker-supported cloud platforms.

TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition enables you to create services and integrate applications using a visual, model-driven development environment, and then deploy them in the TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition runtime. It uses the Eclipse graphical user interface (GUI) provided byTIBCO Business Studio™ for BusinessWorks™ to define business processes and generate deployable artifacts in the form of archive files. For more information, see the TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition Concepts guide for additional details.

Performance plays a very important role in terms of stability, scalability, throughput, latency and resource utilization. With a view to achieve optimal performance of the TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition application, it is important to understand the various levels at which the tuning methods and best practices can be applied to the components.

The intent of the TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition Performance Benchmarking and Tuning guide is to provide guidelines with respect to performance benchmarking, tuning methodologies and best practices. This document must be used along with other product documentation and project-specific information to achieve the desired performance results. The goal is to assist in tuning and optimizing the runtime for most common scenarios.

This document describes architectural concepts related to performance tuning for TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition. The document includes the different tuning parameters, steps required to configure the parameters, and design techniques for better performance. However, you must focus on real customer use cases to understand the issue and the associated solution.

Note: The performance tuning and configurations in this document are provided for reference only. They can be reproduced only in the exact environment and under workload conditions that existed when the tests were done. The numbers in the document are based on the tests conducted in the performance lab for TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition 2.5.3 and may vary according to the components installed, the workload, the type and complexity of different scenarios, hardware and software configuration, and so on. The performance tuning and configurations should be used only as a guideline, after validating the customer requirements and environment. TIBCO does not guarantee their accuracy.
