Managing system performance

 

Successfully managing performance ensures that your system is efficiently using resources and that your server provides the best possible services to your users and to your business needs. Moreover, effective performance management can help you quickly respond to changes in your system and can save you money by postponing costly upgrades and service fees.

Performance management is necessary to optimize utilization of your computer system by measuring current capabilities, recognizing trends, and making appropriate adjustments to satisfy end user and management requirements such as response time or job throughput. It is needed to maintain business efficiency and avoid prolonged suspension of normal business activities. Therefore, managing performance is part of your daily operations.

Understanding the factors that affect system performance helps you respond to problems and make better long-term plans. Effective planning can prevent potential performance problems from developing and ensures that you have the system capacity to handle your current and growing workloads.
