Capacity planning in client - server systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The proliferation of client–server systems in business continues unabated, as applications are split into local tasks run on ‘client’ workstations and resource-intensive computations run on a ‘server’ mainframe. The complexity of such systems requires quantitative modelling for their efficient design and reconfiguration throughout their lifetime. The tools and techniques that are needed for the effective performance management of distributed client–server systems are discussed and illustrated by a case study taken from the financial sector.

Simalytic Hybrid Modeling: Planning the Capacity of Client/Server Applications
The designs of computer applications are changing from single system designs to cross platform client/server designs. Modeling provides the necessary tools and techniques for planning the capacity of large multiple system computer installations by constructing an enterprise view of the applications with an understanding of each of these systems and the interrelationships between them. The Simal...
متن کاملDon't Plan Capacity When You Should Predict Applications
As application designs incorporate client/server systems, either as new functions or as front-ends for legacy systems, the capacity planning challenges increase at a staggering rate. Changing from a single system to clients and servers on different computer platforms would be hard enough, without the additional complexities of different operating systems, databases and networks. The capacity pl...
متن کاملClient-Server Performance Management: Evolution Or Revolution?
As the distributed client-server environment grows there is increasing recognition of the need to establish an infrastructure to support it. There is indeed something of a backlash against distributed systems due to the recognition of the true costs of the system administration required.

متن کاملSimulating e-Commerce Client-Server Interaction for Capacity Planning
Contemporary ways of doing business are heavily dependent on the e-Commerce/ e-Business paradigm. The highest priority of an e-Commerce Web site’s management is to assure pertinent Quality-of-Service (QoS) levels of their Web services continually, in order to keep the potential e-Customers satisfied. Otherwise, it faces an immense possibility of losing both e-Customers and revenues, along with ...
متن کاملResponse Times in Client-Server Systems
Response time is the key performance measure in on-line transaction processing systems and other client-server architectures. Not only is it important to achieve a low average value and correspondingly high throughput, but response time should also be fairly consistent in order to provide a good quality of service. We develop a new algorithm for computing the probability density function of res...
