Best Practices: Testing Enterprise WAN Applciations

Poor enterprise application performance can cripple day-to-day business, affecting revenues directly through lost sales and indirectly through decreased productivity. Because of the increased complexity of systems and networks, it can be difficult to know how an application will perform on any given network or to identify the actual cause of performance issues when they arise. Performance expectations are often at variance to actual performance. 

This white paper explains how to predict application performance and failure thresholds under every condition the system will encounter. It provides an overview of best practices for defining requirements and evaluating the system under consideration or development. Anue Systems supports these best practices by providing network emulation, analysis and reporting systems that establish a controlled environment for baseline and real-world performance testing.

Enterprise applications are essential elements of the business infrastructure. Poor application performance can cripple day-to-day business and affect productivity. The complexity of enterprise applications and networks makes it difficult to predict application performance and identify the root cause of performance issues. 

The key to a successful application rollout is robust testing under realistic traffic and network conditions. The two-tier testing model of establishing baseline and network emulation metrics and determining load and impairment thresholds empowers you to compile the data you need to make informed decisions and communicate realistic expectations vertically and horizontally through your organization. 

Anue Systems Network Emulators are essential tools for effectively developing and deploying enterprise applications. They provide the ability to

• increase the quality of the user experience
• accurately and precisely emulate real-world network conditions prior to deployment
• reduce development schedules and support cost
• minimize troubleshooting and downtime on the production network
• increase revenue and competitive advantage

Network emulation testing can mean the difference between a smooth network application deployment and an unexpected crisis. By applying these best practices in an authentic network environment, you can ensure a successful rollout.
