System Performance Tuning

Excellent system performance is crucial for your enterprise to successfully conduct business operations and to avoid unnecessary system upgrades.USJade provides System Performance Tuning across your entire environment from end-user business flows to operating system parameters to help ensure a fast, efficient and scalable system.

Measurable Targets and Improvements

You can’t improve what you can’t measure.  With USJade’s System Performance Tuning methodology, our first step is to carefully identify the key business processes and individual components and the necessary performance metric targets.  Establishing a baseline in terms of response times or job completion times will serve to as a bar in which to identify both targets and evaluate intermediate and final results.

End-to-end System Performance Tuning

Just as a chain’s strength can be measured by the strength of its weakest link, any component in the eBusiness Suite ecosystem can be an inadvertent bottleneck.
 
            Areas of investigation:

• Inefficient Business Processes
• Job Scheduling and Management
• Oracle eBusiness Suite Applications
• Poorly written code (Java, SQL, PL/SQL, C++, C#, .NET)
• Unapplied vendor performance patches
• RDMS configuration (Oracle, SQL Server, Teradata)
• Middle tier component
• Operating system parameters and patching (Linux, HP-UX, Solaris)
• Hardware (CPU, Memory, Storage, Network)

An Iterative Methodology

In order to obtain optimal system performance, we employ a closed-feedback mechanism to identify, measure, tune and record results.  Keep in mind, a piece of code may perform well as a standalone module, but  problems may manifest themselves as the number of users increases to tens or hundreds of thousands.   This iterative methodology is the basis for our work in creating an efficiently performing system.

Fast, Efficient and Scalable Custom Code

Using our industry leading coding standards we can advise your developers on the best way to write fast, efficient and scalable custom code (“CEMLI”).  Our own offshore and onsite development teams follow the same standards when we deliver custom code.  We recommend that all code be considered for a system performance test as seemingly efficiently written code can perform poorly under load.
