Batch Performance Problem/Solution
Even with advances in batch program development, problems with batch performance are still very common. This is particularly painful during implementations. Operations teams need to ensure that the batch window is not breached to guarantee their Service-Level Agreement (SLA) is met. Breaches in SLA can result in significant financial loss to the business. Best practice is for all batch processing to be completed in under half the batch window. It is not usually possible to achieve this using performance tuning alone. These solutions are the new industry standard as no additional development or hardware expenditure is required to make them work. Runtimes can usually be reduced by more than 85%.
