Cloud computing provides tremendous competitive advantages to companies, putting enormous pressure on IT departments. vRealize Suite, VMware’s new cloud management platform, is an entirely new way of managing private, public, and hybrid clouds, offering:
- On-demand service delivery & release automation
- Capacity and resource optimization
- Predictive analytics and self-learning management
- Service costing and metering
Enterprise data centres have traditionally used servers and storage that typically scale only to a few nodes. Even small capacity or performance scales required large installation increments or worse, required replicating the existing IT infrastructure, which is prohibitive in terms of cost and space. An important impediment was that as storage capacity increased, system performance and efficiency suffered. In addition, IT budgets came under pressure and created high entry barriers to scale for enterprise class data centres. However, virtualization and cloud platforms are changing that. IT departments can now linearly scale to several server and storage nodes rapidly, for capacity and performance without compromising on efficiency and to keep costs under control. This helps save space via hardware consolidation, improves productivity, and derives a competitive advantage through increased availability, lean administration, and fast deployment times.
Effective performance engineering is a critical factor in delivering meaningful results. The implementation must be built into every aspect of the business, from IT and business management to internal and external customers and all other stakeholders. Convetit brought together ten experts in the field of performance engineering to delve into the trends and drivers that are defining the space. This Foresights discussion will directly influence Business and Technology Leaders that are looking to stay ahead of the challenges they face with delivering high performing systems to their end users, today and in the next 2-5 years.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

10 Criteria for Evaluating Your Performance Monitoring Tools
4. Does your tool provide device performance as well as network flow analysis
and application delivery analysis in a single dashboard?
Evaluation Criteria 4
Solution
Example:
Dashboards that
converge network
performance and
other data to allow
more insightful and
faster triage and
remediation
workflow.
Application Delivery Analysis indicates degraded
response for a specific application service on
specific network segments and contextually
launches details to determine if the degradation is
the network, server or application. In this use case,
the degradation is associated with network issues.
Network Performance Monitoring of key
performance indicators for SNMP and non-SNMP
network devices on the degraded application’s
network segment indicate healthy network devices.
Network Flow Analysis shows root cause: one
application is over-utilizing bandwidth and is denying
bandwidth to the degraded application. This enables
operations to improve application response through
QoS, re-routing and/or protocol blocking policies.
Dashboards can also incorporate VoIP and
Video service key performance indicators.
