Performance & Capacity Articles

Getting the most value from Performance Testing

Capacitas believes that analysis of performance testing results should be carried out in conjunction with analytical performance modelling. This has helped Capacitas identify performance problems in the past that wouldnt have been observed by looking at response time results in isolation. The overhead of performing analytical modelling is relatively small compared to the overhead of carrying out the performance tests. The author has developed a set of tips that will help you achieve the maximum benefit from your performance testing process. More details...

Negotiating Performance SLAs

The SLA for response times should be clear and measurable to both parties. In the same way a customer purchases a car from a dealership he understands the specification of the car e.g. its maximum speed. The tips below list some of the things that are useful to define during contract negotiations in order to avoid subsequent disagreements. More details...
