WebSphere Dynamic Cache: Improving J2EE application performance

The Dynamic Cache is part of the IBM solution for improving performance of Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE™) applications running within WebSphere Application Server. It supports caching of Java™ servlets, JavaServer Pages™ (JSP™), WebSphere® command objects, Web services objects, and Java objects. This paper describes the techniques used by the Dynamic Cache for caching these objects and demonstrates the performance improvement gained by applying these techniques to a typical enterprise Web application.
