Optimizing an OLTP application

This section describes the measures for response time optimization in transaction mode and with BCAM.

In many cases the network quality has the greatest influence on the response time behavior. Lost and corrupted packets and packet transposition force the transport system to take error recovery measures, which result in packet repetitions and reduced transmission performance. A network analysis must include not only the end systems, but also all the other network components, such a switches, routers, firewalls, gateways, etc. SNMP agents can integrate the measuring components of BS2000 into such an infrastructure.
