Abstract

The database analyzer and predictor (DBAP) is a CASE (computer-aided software engineering) tool supporting the design and tuning of IDMS (integrated data-management system) DB/DC applications. It is an interactive system, completely integrated with the IDMS online environment and providing the database designer with a comprehensive set of performance analysis models evaluating principal aspects of the database system performance. Close coupling of the workload analysis models with the computer system model provides a means for predicting the response-time behavior of the modeled database system. The performance-oriented database methodology, supported by a menu-driven user interface, guides the users through the database design, as well as existing database system tuning and capacity-planning projects
