Technical White Papers - Performance and Scalability

[Greg_Seaton]

Hello,

Listed below are the technical white papers related to OnBase performance or scalability. This first post will be updated as new documentation becomes available. Please create a new post for any questions, comments or suggestions. Thank you.

Each of these documents can also be found in the Performance Team ShareBase folder under Technical White Papers.

Calculating Bandwidth Requirements for OnBase
This document is intended for OnBase implementers wanting assistance on calculating bandwidth requirements for OnBase.

Calculating Bandwidth Requirements for OnBase

Deploying OnBase on a WAN
This document describes noteworthy characteristics of a wide area network (WAN) and how it relates and affects OnBase products. It will also explain how to best setup an OnBase system in WAN environments.

Hardware Resource Guide
This document offers hardware recommendations and hardware sizing guidelines for OnBase solutions. Every OnBase solution has unique characteristics that may impact hardware requirements. This document provides OnBase solution categories, hardware recommendations for these categories, and links for more information about designing an OnBase solution. The recommendations in this guide are not the minimum requirements. See the appropriate Module Reference Guide for minimum requirements. The guide is designed to be conservative, to account for unknown environmental variables, to handle peak load, and to allow for future growth.

Load Balancing OnBase
This documentation discusses support for Load Balancing OnBase that goes over requirements and generic configuration. This has receive major updates as of June 27th, 2017.

Load Balancing OnBase

Load Testing OnBase
This paper focuses on helping a load tester code load tests for OnBase. It focuses on and provides examples for the HTML Only Web Client and Unity Client.  It also contains some discussion of designing load test scenarios.

Monitoring of an OnBase Solution
The central monitoring of computer systems is often known as Network Monitoring. This term describes a methodology that constantly monitors a computer network for slow or failing components and notifies the network administrator in case of outages via email, or other alarms.  This guide describes the methods that may be used to monitor the servers, network, and software used in an OnBase solution.
