Best practices for performance optimization

Performance optimization is not a one-time task; it’s an ongoing process that requires a strategic approach and careful consideration of multiple factors. As you continue to refine and enhance your NestJS application, adhering to best practices can help you maintain a high-performance application that scales effectively and delivers a superior user experience.

In this section, we’ll cover key best practices for performance optimization in NestJS. These practices are designed to ensure that your application remains fast, efficient, and reliable as it evolves.

Monitor and benchmark regularly

Continuous monitoring and benchmarking are essential for identifying performance bottlenecks and ensuring that your application meets performance goals. Utilize monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, or Datadog to track key performance metrics such as response times, CPU usage, memory consumption, and request rates.
