Big UAT coming up

We created a new and pretty portal for one of our clients. What is unique about this is it is all about social networking. Employees of my client can use this site to blog, subscribe to RSS feeds, add friends to their network, personalize their home page etc. After gruel system testing, we will launch it into UAT mode next week. Pre UAT tasks include SSO enabling, Search integration with Endeca and bunch of configuration changes to the JVM settings. Performance testing is pending and that scares me a lot. But our team is confident that they will benchmark before release. I already increased heap size and also made GC parallel to use the two CPU cores.

Next release include enabling wikis, streaming server integration etc. Third step (in 2009) is retiring the old system and migrating the whole data from old system to new system.

Quite thrilled.
