Introduction

This chapter is about WebLogic Server stability and performance, but most of the recipes are
focused on stability.

For the WebLogic Administrator, stability should come first in the priority list of objectives. It is
improbable that an unstable system achieves sufficient performance.

This chapter provides simple but effective small tunings, targeting a stable and predictable
production environment.
