AlwaysOn.biz can bring a rapid resolution to performance and application scaling problems for a WebSphere Business Integration (WBI) solution. We have extensive expertise with the WBI suite of software and the methodology and tools needed to bring a speedy solution to any performance problems plaguing your business.
If we are involved early in a project, we can prevent these issues from happening in the first place. What is required is a disciplined Software Performance Engineering approach where each software development artifact is validated as early as possible in the application development lifecycle. Our philosophy is an application development lifecycle that covers “inception to retirement”. While taking this approach requires an upfront investment, in our experience, the payoff is typically at least 10 times the initial investment. Where would you prefer to invest your money?
Investing early in the application development lifecycle prevents disruptions to the business, while hastily deployed applications that are not ready for Production is a recipe for disaster. Which scenario is better for your reputation? I.T. firefighting can be exciting but working in this mode wears heavily on you and your staff. The point here is that these circumstances don’t happen by chance, it is a choice.
One other misconception regarding the use of Performance Engineering principles is that it adds to the timeline of an application implementation. Given the right approach and resources, this has not been our experience. For many organizations getting the architecture and design aspects of a new application right on the first implementation is a very difficult task. Re-work is a fact of life. Re-work also means that your customers are suffering until the fix is moved to Production.
Since we have experience in software development, we understand these issues and can effectively work with both the Architecture and Software Develop team to resolve such obstacles prior to implementing the application in Production. If these risks can be identified and resolved earlier in the application development lifecycle, everyone wins.
The bottom line is that we bring extensive full application lifecycle experience to performance problems so we can resolve these issues before they becomes a crisis for you. Please review the remaining sections of our web site which illustrate our successes.
