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 server’s hardware. If at any point
in this system demand exceeds capacity, performance suffers and user productivity may fall. The
biggest challenge in such a situation is often to identify the component that is at fault. Multiple
servers are involved in delivering a page to a user—which 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 and maximize the speed of delivery. In this lesson, you learn how to examine and
profile your SharePoint system’s performance to ensure that users always get their content
delivered quickly.
After this lesson, you will be able to:
• Use Performance Monitor to analyze a SharePoint farm.
• Ensure that a SharePoint farm architecture has enough Resource:
• to support your users.
• Create benchmark performance records and identify trends.
• Resolve bottlenecks and troubleshoot poor performance.
• Configure your SharePoint farm for monitoring and troubleshooting.
• Choose the right counters to examine a performance issue.
• Use the developer dashboard to obtain page rendering performance data.
