• Why?– Are we concerned about something? End user performance or additional users?– Do we have the skills to fix the problems?

• Performance Testing Lifecycle– Specify Critical Processes– Tune/Optimize– Measure– Observe Trends

• Measure and Track Performance (How Many/How Fast)

– Response times experienced by users– Number of transactions per hour– Batch processing times by job or group of jobs– Number or size of XML documents via web services– How many users does the system support

• Tempdb• Logs• Data & Index Files• Direct ODBC Access• Tips for Running EnterpriseOne with SQL

Server 2008, Doc ID 843297.1

SQL SERVER

QuestDirect.org

• Archive Logs• Data & Index Files• Redo logs• Oracle Update Statistics• Direct ODBC Access• XML Issue- Oracle Databases Only: The DBA must run statistics over the package tables (F9867xx<package

name>; ex. F98761PKGA) after Package Build finishes building them and prior to deploying the package. If this step is not done, processes that do significant spec accesses, such as On-Demand Generation, will be very slow.

Technology Solution Assessment

GSI’S S ASSISTANCE

QuestDirect.org

Pinnacle Performance Practice•The Pinnacle Performance Practice (P3) was created to provide a peace of mind that your business system can handle your business now and in the future• Simulate “real world” use with scripts• Create scripts for each business process• Inject scripts based on user counts and process mix (eg: 40% Dist, 20%

Mfg, 10% inquiry)• Identify bottlenecks and Lead to Performance Optimization

Recommendations• Find the “breaking point”• Document peak performance and create a baseline.

Can also be used to measure effects of:• Adding a business process, new users, or acquisition• Changes to Hardware, OS or DBMS• Changes to Software/Updates/Upgrades/INI files• Security Changes• Browser Upgrades or changes (IE, Firefox, Chrome & Safari)

BASIC BENCHMARKING

QuestDirect.org

Pros: – Provides overall program performance statistics– Easy to create and implement

Cons:– Provides only the overall program performance

statistics– Difficult to identify which section or events within a

section are the most time consuming
