Redpaper on Performance and Capacity Implications for a Smarter Planet

Instead of telling something about "low level" performance tips, I tried to contribute some stuff on "some higher" levels this time.

This IBM Redpaper™ publication discusses the performance and capacity implications of "Smarter Planet" solutions. It examines the Smarter Planet vision, the characteristics of these solutions (including the challenges), examples of addressing performance and capacity in a number of recent Smarter IT projects, recommendations from what has been learned thus far, and discussions of what the future may hold for these solutions.


Table of contents:
  • Introduction to a Smarter Planet
  • Performance and capacity challenges introduced by Smarter Planet
  • Managing IT performance and capacity for the Smarter Planet
  • Five examples of Smarter IT projects and challenges
  • Recommendations
  • Conclusion
