Imagine that you can deliver your new application on time and within budget while meeting your performance requirements - with the first release. Imagine that your performance and stress tests run successfully on the first attempt. Imagine that you can know the hardware requirements for that application before it is developed.
A New Paradigm
We shift the paradigm for managing software performance from problem solving to best practices for performance excellence. With this approach:
- Architects know that their architecture will support performance requirements before committing to code.
- Project managers can track the status of performance while the software is being developed.
- Performance specialists have time to run load and stress tests without encountering "surprises."
- Risks to achieving performance requirements are identified and addressed early in the process, saving both time and money.
- Software that meets performance requirements is delivered on time and within budget.
Software Performance Engineering
Software Performance Engineering (SPE) is a systematic, quantitative approach to the cost-effective development of software systems to meet performance requirements. SPE, a software-oriented approach, focuses on architecture, design, and implementation choices.
SPE gives you the information you need to build software that meets performance requirements on time and within budget.
