Explanation:
Monitor Performance
A SharePoint farm is a complex system. It may have multiple servers all taking different roles
and running different services. Each role places specific demands on its servers hardware. If at
any point in this system demand exceeds capacity, performance suffers and user productivity
may fall. The biggest challenge in such a situationis often to identify the component that is at
fault. Multiple servers are involved in delivering a page to a userwhich server is causing the
problem and what services or software components are overtaxing hardware resources? To
answer such questions, you must analyze the performance of your farm in detail. In this way
you can determine how to resolve the contention andmaximize the speed of delivery. In this
lesson, you learn how to examine and profile your SharePoint systems performance to ensure
that users always get their content delivered quickly.
After this lesson, you will be able to:
n Use Performance Monitor to analyze a SharePoint farm.
n Ensure that a SharePoint farm architecture has enough resources to support your
users.
n Create benchmark performance records and identifytrends.
n Resolve bottlenecks and troubleshoot poor performance.
n Configure your SharePoint farm for monitoring andtroubleshooting.
n Choose the right counters to examine a performance issue.
n Use the developer dashboard to obtain page rendering performance data.
