Application
Performance |
|
Computers
execute programs. Networks transfer data between programs. Application developers
(rightfully) spend much of their time wrestling with the parts of their
programs that users interact with. Maybe this is as it should be, but just
a small amount of work addressing how the program will impact the computer
and network can save tremendous amounts of money in hardware and supporting
software. Lots of really slow programs have great user interfaces. The users
hate them anyway.

Capacity
Management |
|
Capacity
management is a founding discipline of computing. As computing capacity
exploded and costs for resources, including cpu and memory, plummeted, there
was a shift away from rigorous capacity planning. In this economic climate,
wasteful spending is frowned upon and can limit careers.

Performance
Management |
|
Today,
if an application is slow, users consider it unavailable. To offer services
in this low tolerance environment, performance and capacity must be monitored.
Operations should discover performance problems before users call the help
desk. Capacity must be added before utilizations impact performance.
