System i Performance Analysis

IT departments are under constant pressure to keep systems running at optimal performance whilst ensuring enough capacity to manage user demands for today and the future. Often the pressure to maintain service levels results in disk and hardware upgrades which solve immediate problems but do little to help the longer term issues.

Life’s Performance Analysis service is designed to address the situation from the bottom up. As a result, we identify how to get extra performance from your existing systems and determine exactly what they are capable of handling in the short and long term.

A key aspect of the service is the collection of information at different times of the day and week in order to identify workload peaks and troughs. We may need to visit your site over a number of days but, thanks to our fixed pricing; you know exactly in advance what the cost will be.

Once all the system information has been collected, our specialists will examine it with a view to establishing the overall situation along with any key trends. Drawing on their extensive experience – and the skills of our hardware and software partners as appropriate – we’ll identify exactly what your system is capable of doing and how it can grow.
