# \[AIAS-02] Architecture overview

The following picture represents the high-level architecture of how Akamas operates in this scenario.

The optimization goal is to make Renaissance run faster, a common optimization goal for Java applications.

Therefore, the optimization study needs to have the following properties:

* The goal of the optimization will be to minimize the response time of the Java application (another goal would be to reduce the JVM memory usage)
* The parameters to be optimized include some common JVM options, like the heap size and the garbage collector type
* The metrics that you will measure for each experiment will be the application response time, CPU, and memory usage
* The study will execute up to 30 experiments, for the duration of about 1 hour

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.akamas.io/quick-guides/quick-guides-akamas-in-a-sandbox/aias-02-guide-create-a-study-to-optimize-java-performance-using-the-akamas-ui/aias-02-architecture-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
