Ensuring system performance meets our customers requirements can be very challenging, especially when modern systems are highly distributed with many moving parts. Leaving performance concerns till late in the Software Development Life Cycle is akin to “throwing caution to the wind”. By this time, the system architecture has been delivered and all performance related decisions have already been realised in the system design and construction. The only option in this situation is tuning, and depending on the performance related technical issues, might not be an valid option.

To deliver an outstanding customer experience, Performance Management must be integrated into the entire development lifecycle to ensure requirements, architectures, detailed designs, components and test cases deliver the required performance outcomes. Systems that are designed in this manner are scalable, predictable and robust – delivering fast responses to customers after every mouse-click.

Our performance services are summarised in the diagram below.

Designing for Performance

Systems that are scalable, responsive and deliver outstanding customer experience and exceed your businesses expectations do not happen by accident.  They have to be designed to perform.

This starts with defining very clear, measurable requirements for the performance characteristics of the system – response times, transaction throughput, concurrency, load and capacity.

Then it’s on to development.  How do you get the system to functionally work and perform at the same time?

How do you do that when there are so many moving parts distributed across so many diverse computing environments?

And how do you deploy your software and configure it so that you get the best out of it at the lowest operational cost?

Odecee’s performance engineering services are designed to address each of these questions and deliver a quality solution. Because the performance test phase shouldn’t be the time when you discover that your system wasn’t designed to perform.

Odecee’s performance capabilities can be leveraged individually or as an integrated set of services.
