Abstract

A large Employee Appraisal System is accessed by clients from different international locations using the Internet. Being a distributed system, it is not easy to monitor and assess performance of such a large online transaction processing (OLTP) system. Performance Monitoring and Analysis of such a system requires pinpointing to the box or link in the system that is responsible for the overall slow performance. In this paper, we elaborate on our approach of performance monitoring and analysis of a large OLTP system using an employee appraisal system as an example.
