Performance Tuning
Scenario
Users are motivated to work, and can work efficiently, if your SAP systems have good response times. A slow system causes frustration. Since no absolute standards exist for what defines good performance, Saince defines performance in relation to the expected load on the system.
System performance is a tricky subject because it is related to which SAP product you are running, any custom configuration in your application, your hardware, number of user transactions, size of databases and integrated vendor applications.
Good system performance is a prerequisite for the effectiveness of your SAP system and its acceptance by users. Therefore, regular monitoring and quality assurance testing should be performed for your SAP system.
