Addressing Complex Functionalities

Performance bottlenecks are common and can happen in Batch job processing or within the UI. These problems often lead to slow system response time, system crashes, functionality issues, and poor user adoption. Complex enterprise applications require significant specialty to get the most from them and to keep them healthy and operating at peak performance. This blog talks about approaches to troubleshooting system slowness issues and finding appropriate solutions. Customers often experience slowness with jobs such as Settlement, Valuations, customizations, or even certain application views.

Factors that contribute to system slowness

Sub-Optimal Grid Configuration

Poorly designed extensions/ code

Inefficient SQL Queries

Overlapping Grid Scheduled Jobs

Inadequate Hardware Resources, etc.

Depending on the nature of the case, troubleshoot the issue using the various tools provided by your CTRM software and Microsoft (SQL Server Monitoring, App server monitoring, etc.).

Configuring Troubleshooting Checks

Here are two cases of how Value Creed can assist you in addressing common issues. Various other troubleshooting checks can be taken depending on the complexity of the issue. These configurations in most cases have a positive impact throughout the system.

Review the database configurations (Parameterization, Max DOP, Query Cost Threshold, etc.) and adjust the settings based on the hardware resources allocated to the DB Server
Analyze the origin of the query and re-write (in case of a CE)
Check if implicit conversions are causing the issue
Review valuation modes, and segments for optimum configuration
Review business process/scenario

Poor user experience of GUI

Check if Live Data is the culprit in the specific view
Check the Grid configuration for optimal User-request processing.
Review IIS configurations
Check the user session load balancing settings
See if SQL server has to perform intrinsic conversions frequently, etc
