We designed and developed a benchmarking framework to be used by Barclays Capital Inc. to measure the performance of Oracle Coherence. Next we gathered and analyzed important data, including query, update, and load response times, fail-over performance, and latency and throughput of replication across Wide Area Network with a cluster in London. Ultimately, we tested numerous configurations and strategies to determine the optimal configuration and provided recommendations to the firm to achieve high performance. We concluded that Coherence is a scalable and fail- safe system that would perform well in a production environment.
