Synopsis
Contained in this book are, dare I say, secrets--really. There is a mystery surrounding topics like forecasting, performance management, capacity planning, performance modeling, p- formance prediction, and managing service levels. Add into the mix a dynamic Oracle system, and you have realities that bring professional capacity planners to their knees. In the pages of this book are the secrets I've uncovered and discovered through more than 20 years of working with literally thousands of IT professionals around the world. My goal is to expose these secrets as plainly and completely as I possibly can. One of these secrets is unraveling the relationship between service-level management and forecasting Oracle performance. The difficulty lies in the breadth and depth of each of these topics. They are both massive and fork off in a variety of directions. If you are able to bring the two together, you will be able to architect, build, use, and explain to others how they can better manage the delivery of IT services. I will, as clearly as I can throughout this book, present both these areas of IT and then weave them together. The result will leave you with a confident understanding so you can deal with the realities of IT., This book will assist DBAs with forecasting future performance of new and existing database systems. It shows how to create a model of a database system. Different types of models are introduced: mathematical, simulation, and benchmark., What makes seasoned IT professionals run for cover? Answer: Forecasting Oracle Performance! Craig Shallahamer is an Oracle performance expert with over 18 years of experience. His book is the first to focus not on the problem of solving today's problem, but squarely on the problem of forecasting the future performance of an Oracle database. Other Oracle performance books are good for putting out fires; Craig's book helps you avoid all the heat in the first place. If you're an IT practioner who appreciates application over mathematical proofs than you'll be pleasantly surprised! Each chapter is filled with examples to transform the theory, mathematics, and methods into something you can practically apply. Craig's goal is to teach you about real-word Oracle performance forecasting. Period. There is no hidden agenda. This book is a kind of training course. After reading, studying, and practicing the material covered in this book, you to be able to confidently, responsibly, and professionally forecast performance and system capacity in a wide variety of real-life situations. If you are more management-minded (or want to be), you will be delighted with the service level management focus. Forecasting makes good business sense because it maximizes the return on IT investment and minimizes unplanned down time. To those who think forecasting is a waste of money: well...obviously, they've never been on the evening news because their company lost millions of dollars in revenue and brand destruction because of poorly performing or unavailable systems. Without a doubt, you will be equipped to deal with the realities of forecasting Oracle performance. But this book gives you more. Not only will you receive a technical and mathematical perspective, but also a communication, a presentation, and a management perspective. This is career building stuff and immensely satisfying!, Craig Shallahamer's Forecasting Oracle Performance is the first, Oracle-specific book to provide database administrators with help in forecasting future performance of new and existing database systems. Most (if not all) Oracle performance optimization books on the market today focus on troubleshooting acute problems such as a poorly performing report. The other side of the coin however, lies in forecasting: Will the current hardware last the year? What happens when we merge the employees from a newly acquired company? Will the current system keep up with the demands of a new application? These are strategic questions that database administrators are expected to answer. Until now, there has been no book to help them.
