Performance Optimization and Analysis

Performance Optimization comes from expertise in gathering site metrics and effectively analyzing the data. The success of our optimization depends on our sophisticated data collection methods and years of experience fine-tuning servers on a broad spectrum of applications and services. These techniques not only discover bottlenecks, but allow us to provide you with the straight forward explanations as to why your servers are not performing at their peak capacity.

We start by collecting performance metrics via SNMPd that provide graphical information regarding CPU utilization, load averages, RAM utilization, and hard drive usage (reads and writes). We access the performance of your website using this information and review your system configuration, optimizing settings that will make the most impact. We want you to be informed about the health of your servers so that you see the correlation of your website traffic to the resources you're utilizing, and ultimately the value in our tuning expertise.

Troubleshooting

Often times your application performance suffers seemingly without an explanation. Since we manage everything that is on your server we investigate the situation fully, taking into account all performance metrics that have been historically collected to access where the issue has occurred. Performance optimization is as much about correcting bottlenecks as it is about instating proactive policies. We work tirelessly to ensure that your application returns to normal operations. If further action is needed we will provide you with an exact specification of where the problem lies and what needs to be done to address it.

Many of our innovations in the service sector have been a result of customer issues, by taking the knowledge we learn about mitigating one bottleneck and applying it to all of our customers, you gain the benefit of years of experience proactively updating your server for performance.
