Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment of a method for managing a resource pool for deadlock avoidance, a computer receives a request from a thread for a connection from the resource pool, and determines whether the thread currently has at least one connection from the resource pool. Responsive to a determination that the thread currently has at least one connection from the resource pool, a new concurrent connection from one of a reserved partition of the resource pool is allocated and the connection is returned to the thread.

Abstract: An improved solution for intelligent configuration for restarting failed application server instances is provided. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for restarting a failed application server instance includes: receiving a notice of a failure of an application server instance; obtaining a cause of the failure; automatically applying at least one configuration change to the application server instance based on the cause; and recovering the application server instance.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to portal view rendering and provide a method, system and computer program product for managing portal page response times. In one embodiment, a portal data processing system can include a portlet aggregator coupled to a portal server and configured to aggregate portlets in a portal page and to serve the portal page to a requester over a computer communications network. The system also can include a response time monitor coupled to the portal server and configured to measure response times both for the portal page and the portlets in the portal page. Finally, the system can include a response time remediation processor coupled to the response time monitor and configured to disable underperforming ones of the portlets in the portal page so as to improve the response time for the portal page.
