Objectives

  • Establish performance baseline for the existing platform with respect to non-UI channel transactions (teller, internet banking, ATM etc.) and nightly batch performance.
  • Establish the ceiling limit for concurrent channel transactions the system can handle with SLA performance.
  • Identify hot spot and cold spot in the stack.
  • Establish process and build performance regression suite for future product rollouts.
  • Feasibility analysis for business expansion through cloud migration.

Challenges

  • No concurrent thread support for origination transaction in medium and high bank configuration.
  • Consistent SLA violation for origination transactions.
  • Exclusive locks impacting the performance.
  • Determination of the scale factor for the platform for additional resources (system, CPU, memory).

Challenges

  • No concurrent thread support for origination transaction in medium and high bank configuration.
  • Consistent SLA violation for origination transactions.
  • Exclusive locks impacting the performance.
  • Determination of the scale factor for the platform for additional resources (system, CPU, memory).
