The Liferay application framework is proposed as the foundation for this site design.  Liferay offers one of the fastest and most mature platforms available for traditional site and content management as well as full custom applications.  Liferay offers extensive caching and optimization features, out-of-the-box, plus an extensive framework of tools that can be used to optimize custom application components that may come at a future date.

The Omegabit Liferay host infrastructure is purpose-built to offer the fastest site delivery available with no performance bottlenecks at any layer of the application infrastructure.  Omegabit is specially equipped to assists with custom application tuning and optimization, where applicable. Response times for Omegabit hosted Liferay applications are typically on the order of milliseconds, with optimized page delivery and full-screen rendering typically in the 1-3 second range depending on on-screen features and content.  Some optional active security features like intrusion detection and Web request inspection can have nominal but noteworthy impacts to performance.  Omegabit is able to inform and advise the Client on the tradeoffs and benefits of these options, and takes an active and participatory role in the design and maintenance of the customer infrastructure to ensure excellent reliability and performance for the duration of operations.  

Omegabit operates a private, Liferay-optimized cloud infrastructure designed specifically for optimal performance, stability, and reliability.  Infrastructure is never over allocated, by policy, and typically is operating at <50% capacity across any physical server.  We perform regular monitoring and analysis to ensure that no backend cloud infrastructure bottlenecks exist to inhibit the performance of the client VMs.  Notably, Omegabit employs high-end SSD accelerated SAN storage and 10GB backplanes for cloud infrastructure as disk path I/O is a common bottleneck with generic cloud infrastructures.  All CPU, RAM, and disk allocations are reserved and guaranteed.

All features and configuration is performed with consideration for optimal application performance across the application stack including the network, disk, cpu, JVM, db, Apache, and other related layers.  Omegabit specializes in Liferay runtime optimization and TandemSeven is an expert implementer of Liferay architecture.  Collectively, our teams are able to provide an unmatched level of expertise relating to the theoretical design and practical application of your Liferay design to ensure the best possible performance for a given use case.
