Abstract

For business and resource planning, foresight of application’s performance in production is essential. This can apparently be obtained by replicating production environment and scenarios, incurring heavy expenditures. Alternately, time and cost efficient performance modeling and simulation methodology can be used. However complicated real applications and environments deter implementation of this scientific approach. Here we present case study of effectively using model simulation for analyzing a microsite’s performance in production. Some of the key challenges, learning’s and benefits observed during this exercise are also cited.
