Description
A production class server is a high end, powerful machine that is capable of running multiple applications and requires administration, security, and backups. This research involves the development and testing of a non-proprietary model that can be used to analyze production server requirements and project optimal server specifications for a given situation. The proposed model has several assessment parameters including the number of users expected, applications used, usage amounts, and various security requirements. The model has two functions. First, it can be used to generate optimal parameter values given a set of specifications, and second, it can be used to optimize existing production class servers.
