The Oracle Commerce Platform includes classes and a configuration file to enable the Portable Object Format (POF) feature of Oracle Coherence. POF serialization is faster and uses less memory than standard Java serialization.
The configuration provided with the Oracle Commerce Platform is intended as a starting point. Make further customizations based on the way you intend Oracle Coherence to use POF serialization. See information about configuring Oracle Coherence to use POF in the documentation for that product (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/coherence/documentation/index.html).
To use POF serialization:
Extract the file
atg/adapter/gsa/externalcache/config/atg-pof-config.xmlfrom the file<ATG11dir>/DAS/lib/atg-coherence-classes.jar.Place the file in a directory that is accessible by your Oracle Commerce Platform application server. Add the directory to the application server’s class path environment variable. Do not add the file itself.
Customize the
atg-pof-config.xmlfile according to the way you intend to use POF serialization. See the Oracle Coherence documentation for information about these customizations (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/coherence/documentation/index.html).Configure Oracle Coherence to enable POF serialization and to use the
atg-pof-config.xmlconfiguration file. See the Oracle Coherence documentation for information about these customizations (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/coherence/documentation/index.html).
