Performance Management

Performance - the Broad Term

Performance isn't just "speed", "latency" or "throughput".

Performance Indicators (PI's) enable measurement and monitoring of Performance.

PI's for Operational Quality (failed jobs, low error rate, high overal availability)

PI's for Operational Efficiency (e.g. staff hours per week to run a certain application)

Financial PI's (e.g. total costs per year and 100,000 customers)

Performance - Narrow Term: The subset "Speed / Latency / Throughput"
