Chapter 23. Optimizing the JBoss EAP server configuration

Once you have link:https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_jboss_enterprise_application_platform/8.1 Beta/html/red_hat_jboss_enterprise_application_platform_installation_methods/#jboss-eap-8-installation-methods[installed the JBoss EAP server], and you have created a management user, Red Hat recommends that you optimize your server configuration.

Make sure you review information in the Performance tuning for JBoss EAP guide for information about how to optimize the server configuration to avoid common problems when deploying applications in a production environment. Common optimizations include setting ulimits, enabling garbage collection, creating Java heap dumps, and adjusting the thread pool size.

It is also a good idea to keep your instance of JBoss EAP up to date with the latest bug fixes. For more information, see Updating Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.
