Drupal Performance can be divided broadly into 4 Categories:

* Server
* Client
* Modules
* Database

This session will show how to setup technologies for getting the expected base line performance for each of those and giving a good overview of what can be tweaked.

Server: APC, Memcache, Varnish
Client: GZIP, Fast JS, Minimal CSS, Caching Headers, AJAX/PJAX
Modules / PHP / Drupal Code: Common problems, XHProf (fast installation), Custom Caching, Block Cache Alter, Core Patches
Database: Common Tweaks, InnoDB, Slow Query Detection, Slow Query Fixing
The session will show step-by-step approaches how to gradually make the site faster.

It is aimed at beginners in DevOps, but will give a broad overview to know where to look for performance problems and what to do.
