CAPACITY PLANNING AND OPTIMIZATION

CAPACITY PLANNING AND OPTIMIZATION

Enhancing application performance across the enterprise

In complex, distributed, client/server environments, application performance is not determined solely by CPU speed or I/O throughput. The growing web of networks that link workstations, servers, departments, and facilities throughout an organizationÆs computing environment can have a tremendous influence on how wellùor how poorlyùan application performs. And that can have a major effect on your productivity.

Capacity Planning and Optimization Service for CV Services International can help eliminate performance problems, enhance integration, reliability and security, and speed your business towards productivity.

A methodology with measurable benefits

Most methods of capacity planning are based on educated guesswork about the effect of a new application on the existing infrastructure. As with any less-than-scientific method, there is potential for error, and miscalculation can result in disappointing performance, increased costs, and lost productivity.

CV Services International takes a more scientific approach, using a four-step methodology:

ò Assessment Study;

ò Baseline Analysis;

ò Application Characterization; and

ò Application Impact Analysis.

The Assessment Study involves an evaluation of the physical network and systems infrastructure. The Baseline Analysis measures these components to determine performance factors in the existing environment. We eliminate the guesswork by developing a dynamic computer model. This model enables you to try out a range of simulations and ôwhat-ifö scenarios before you commit large sums of money. In doing so, you can create the optimum balance of cost and performance for your organizationÆs needs.

Capacity Planning and Optimization enables you to determine more accurately the impact of new or additional application traffic on your infrastructure. This Application Impact Analysis takes into account all the factors involvedùnetwork changes, additional clients and servers, and new application characteristics. And by measuring response, we can determine the degree to which processing delays figure into the final configuration. You get an accurate picture of future network performance end-to-endùand the ability to make and test preventive changes.
