Enterprise Performance Management - A Framework for Optimizing Network and Application Performance
Gain valuable information on optimizing network and application performance through a systematic approach to managing the combined performance of enterprise application and network resources.
In this whitepaper, you will discover a five-step framework that gives IT professionals the processes and information necessary to help ensure continuous IT infrastructure optimization, reliability and performance. In addition, EPM can also help IT organizations achieve maximum performance and value from existing staff and budget resources. The individual steps are:
Identify - The first step toward achieving high performance in enterprise networks and applications involves understanding involves understanding - or in many cases identifying - the complete network and application environment.
Monitor - With knowledge of all network and application resources within the IT infrastructure, the next step is to closely monitor the performance of key resources.
Measure - Understanding how an application's performance changes over time, under various circumstances, and how it interacts with other applications historically.
Manage - Determine which network components and applications need to be tightly managed.
Resolve - Root cause analysis for Network and Application troubleshooting.
