System audit
Our packaged service "System audit" is being
offered to customers who want their server configurable parameters, rightly
configured to realize the maximum throughput and performance. It can also expose
the hidden functionality within the technical architecture of PeopleSoft
implementation. We use a top down methodology to review Web Servers,
application server and the database servers. We provide you with best practices
for change control, backup / recovery and disaster recovery methods.
A little tuning can save you millions of
dollars by avoiding costly hardware upgrades. System audit can help you identify
those areas that need specific tuning. By rightsizing the parameters, the
servers can do more work thereby increasing the throughput. Typically you
conduct a system audit before you move to Production or perhaps even after you
move to Production. A system audit is a two weeks fixed scope fixed price
service and it is guaranteed to provide positive results.
Key Benefits
- Identify potential system
bottlenecks
- Configure server side parameters
correctly
- Increase throughput
- Enhance your ROI
