Tools > SPEED
Intelligroup’s SPEED service and optimization approach is designed to enhance system performance by taking the holistic view of coordinating and analyzing system parameters, applications, database, developments and application interfaces. It is a broad-based approach covering multiple dimensions of system lifecycle management. SPEED service focuses on benchmarking, sizing, analyzing, measuring and controlling areas of database administration, application management and development support.

Understanding our customers’ need for reducing performance optimization costs, Intelligroup has introduced SPEED service that employs qualified and trained professionals who use our proprietary tools to automate and generate performance based reports accurately. These reports are analyzed and a performance process roadmap is developed to manage and deploy optimization improvements effectively. The service helps to obtain a quick and effective solution and can be combined with quality process for standardization across the organization.

Implementation Methodology
A defined and proven cycle that can perform accurate analysis and feeds back into the process for sustained performance improvement is the essence in the SPEED service. It works on DMAIC methodology. The activities that are performed using this methodology are described below:

D: Define
In this phase, end user interviews are conducted to identify the system critical parameters that consume numerous SAP resources. Critical transactions, reports, queries, batch jobs or other system variables use a lot of table space, disk utilization etc. This defines the scope for assessment.

M: Measure
Based on the scope identified earlier, thresholds are defined for various parameters and measurements are taken. The measurements are logged in the SPEED database for future reference.

A: Analyze
Based on the defined scope and threshold values, analysis is performed using SPEED. The reports generated are analyzed by experts and used to identify areas for performance improvements. Action items are made based on the reports for the team to work on.

I: Improve
The action items form the boosters in respective areas. System boosters, ABAP boosters, SQL boosters and application boosters are identified that are applied by the team. Once the boosters are applied, testing is performed and the objects are then marked for productive use. Post-application measurements are again taken and the ROI is calculated in terms of improvement to the various parameters.

C: Control
Various control parameters are set to effective management of measurement, analysis and improvement. The results are feedback into the process for continuous improvement.

Benefits of SPEED Service include:
  SPEED can be deployed as part of QR process
  Reduction in the effort for system performance monitoring
  Reduction in code walkthrough and review time
  Knowledge base is configurable and can be tuned to reflect the changes in SAP system
 

Analysis can be saved for future reference

 

Tightens integration between application modules and ABAP analysis

 

Provides for a thorough code inspection and issue categorization by severity code
