Overview
You can prevent most software performance problems if you recognize their predictable patterns. This book introduces author Den Odell’s Fast by Default model that replaces the slow fix-it-later path with a unique framework to build in performance from the start.
Den Odell’s System Paths framework provides a universal diagnostic language for performance that works across any platform or stack to keep your systems fast even as your codebase, team, and user base grow. You’ll work through hands-on examples like slow internal dashboards and cascading problems from a degraded API. Effective profiling tools, shared dashboards, CI budgets, and design reviews all ensure your performance goals are user-centered and your team is aligned and accountable.
What's inside
• An innovative “Fast by Default” prevention-first methodology
• Observability, stakeholder alignment, and performance culture
• AI-assisted coding and non-human traffic
