New Book on SAP BW Performance Tuning

Hi All,
Just thought of sharing this info on SDN...
A new book on SAP BW Performance Tuning is available...
http://www.erpguides.com/books/bwperformance.htm
Shreekant W Shiralkar & Bharat Patel have authored a book on SAP BW Performance Tuning. The book is based on their real life experiences on improving the system performance using various features/techniques/ideas.
I am aware that the The book covers many how-to procedures with screen shots for helping the reader to implement the performance improvement and benefit immediately. It would be interesting to read this book as a compilation of practical experiences on performance tuning .
Cheers,
Amol

Hi,
Read Data warehousing books written by Ralph Kimball or Bill Inmon in order to familiarize yourself with the basic concepts of data warehousing. This is the foundation of the entire thing.
Follow the SAP training materials on BW Data Warehousing, BW Reporting and BW Modeling. There are several books that can help you a lot when getting started. check this link
[http://www.amazon.com/SAP-BW-Book-List/lm/RRWM7R55RBEXQ/ref=cm_lmt_srch_f_2_rsrsrs2/103-7157721-8001426]
After you have a solid BW knowledge, start to review the help.sap.com site.
Hope this helps,

  • SAP Netweaver Performance Tuning

    Guys,
    I am good in SAP J2EE Engine Performance Tuning. I would like to learn SAP ABAP Based Server Performance tuning end to end. Please recommend me some links/docs to start with the performance tuning for different OS like HP-UX/AIX & for Databases : Oracle/MaxDB etc.
    Thank you in advance.
    Cheers, Karthick

    Hi Karthick, for example for SAP with Oracle on AIX -->
    white paper -->
    http://www-03.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/WP100377
    But SAP with Oracle tuning are usually not very much dependent on the platform, of course there are differences but they are not much.
    Personally, I bought the SAP Performance Optimization Guide -->
    http://www.sap-press.com/products/SAP-Performance-Optimization-Guide-(5th-Edition).html?
    and SAP Database Administration with Oracle
    http://www.sap-press.com/products/SAP-Database-Administration-with-Oracle.html
    Nice books. Regards.

  • SAP CRM Performance tuning

    From where can I get information or documents how to do performance tuning in SAP CRM?

    Hi, Performance Tuning a SAP system is unique in every environment, also there are many area's in SAP to tune even area's outside SAP, eg... your Operating System/Network/Client Machines/Virtual Landscape/Cloud.
    I recommend that you engage in a performance testing execise which will identify what area of your SAP Landscape needs tuning, first you need to identify the bottleneck before you can tune it.
    The way the question was posed is exactly the same as wanting to fix a car but you have no idea which part of the car to fix...

  • In sap bi performance tuning option is considered in cube not in ods, why?

    details about
    indexes,partitions,aggregates,compression,roll up
    how these are helping to increase system performance
    why ods is not suitable?

    Hi,
    Generally we do performance tuning on the cubes as most of the reportings are done on the cubes hpowever in case of DSO also we can increase the performance by creating indexes of deactivating SID generation flag if there is no reporting on the DSO.
    Following 2 links will show you different aspects of performance tuning :-
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/404544e7-83c9-2e10-7b80-a24d5099ce3f

    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/005f3197-d3da-2e10-1a94-a5c62342f2aa
    You may create aggregates on the cube if some of  IO are being used in the query very frequently to enhance the performce of query execution.

  • Do a new layout on SAP NetWeaver Portal need more Performance?

    Hello,
    we want to create a new layout on SAP NetWeaver Portal in the Corporate Design of our company. Somebody said me, that a change from the standard layout needs a lot of more Performance on the server. Is that true?
    At the present time our server already works very slowly with the standard layout. Is it useful to change the layout? Or do we need a better server for that?
    Thanks in advance!
    Best regards,
    Ulrike Arndt

    Hi,
    It depend on how you design your layout.
    Use standard light framework and design your layout without heavy weight components.
    It increases the performance also.(a little b
    it.)

  • Performance tuning for new OFMW environment

    Hello
    We have just set up a new UAT environment entirely on all Oracle FMW latest products which includes:
    1) OS -RHEL V5
    2) WebCenter
    3) SOA Suite
    4) Database
    5) IDM
    6) HTTP Server
    7) WebLogic Server
    As as post infrastructure setup plan we need to to performance tuning as well. Shall we do only WLS performance tuning or we need to tune each and every product in order to get optimum results.
    Any guide? resource to help?
    Pls advice
    Regards
    Dev

    When you install the product soa-suite (and probably webcenter too) a prerequisite check is performed
    that gives information about packages and parameters that need to be adjusted on your operating system.
    For products that run on WebLogic Server you probably have to tune the JVM, examples can be found here:
    - http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6930 (discusses JRockit)
    - http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=7083 (focuses on Coherence, but the considerations can be applied to other environments as well)
    Examples that set-up the SOA-Suite can be found here:
    - http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6040 (discusses considerations when installing the SOA suite)
    - http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6872 (discusses considerations when adding the web-tier to the SOA suite)
    The enterprise deployment guides can help too:
    - SOA Suite: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/core.1111/e12036/toc.htm
    - WebCenter: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/core.1111/e12037/toc.htm
    These also contain sections on integration with Oracle Identity Management and the Oracle HTTP Server

  • SAP Business Objects Performance Tuning Guides

    Hello everyone,
    I'm currently looking for Performance Tuning guides for the hardware/software. In particular, parameters for the hardware. I'm having a hard time finding any kind of guides on the server side of Business Objects. So I'm wondering if anybody knows of some that are available on the internet or SAP site?
    I've found very few in the software department. However, I'm looking more for the hardware portion of Business Objects. Basically the goal is to get the server as optimal as possible (As far as memory, parameters, CPU, etc) is concerned so we know it can't be a hardware issue. It's kind of narrowing down the potential problems we can have later on down the road so that's why this is very important right now.
    Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. -Victor

  • SAP Performance tuning

    What measures shall we take if it is needed to performance tune the SAP Server. It is getting too slow. It will be helpful if someone can send me some link about SAP Performance tuning, not ABAP performance tuning.
    Regards,
    Subhasish

    The SAP Servers can be slow because of many reasons:
    1. The Table Consistency: The tables should be consistent. A consistency check should be done regulalrly.Better would be using DB13 so that it can be scheduled in appropriate days.
    2. One major reason that I have found in recent times is the amount of authorizations that might be available to the users of the sytem. If all the users have a high volume of authorization objects in their user master buffer, then the response time becomes sluggish.This is true for most of the dev boxes that allow almost any amount of authorization for users and have a low RAM size.
    3. Also you might be intrested to check your network consistency. If you are accessing your servers from home with a wireless connection of 16kbps, you might want to configure your logon pad for such a crappy connection.
    Most of the BASIS performance tuning tasks such as ST04, STAT, ST02 and DB12 should be carried out too just to investigate furthur.
    Hope these were a few helpful tips.
    Peace be with everybody

  • When performing a new book, how to see specific rolls in upside of screen?

    I will appreciate if somebody can help me!!!
    I'm trying to do a new book with the photos of the last year to gift it to a family. Already organize the library by rolls of events but when go to the book and try to get the Pic's it show another file of Pic's, not the rolls of the library.
    *How to see the specific rolls in the upside of the screen when perform a book?*
    In addition, all Pic's already include in the book has a warning massage "This photo may print at too low of quality".
    *How to avoid lack of quality and bad pic's in the book? How I'm sure of it before buy it?*
    Also in some pages I'm writing shorts sentences and will prefer to has a big Pic's (not to zoom it).
    *How to enlarge the Pic size in the page?*

    Hi ricardog,
    Hopefully I can help in some way, as I have only just started using iPhoto myself.
    Regarding pics, I found it much easier to create a single roll containing all of the images you want in the book. However, that is not essential. As far as getting the book to see the relevant images, you need to select the actual pics you want in the iPhoto preview window, and drag those over the Book icon that will be in the left hand pane. This tells the Book (or calendar) which images are going to be used in the project.
    Quality wise - it is unfortunately a bit of a problem if you are creating a book at a large size, with perhaps full size images approaching A4 - many consumer digital cameras are not going to be producing images capable of going up to that kind of size, and you may need to rethink your layout or book choice. Basically, images placed in the book or calendar will need to be at a final resolution of at least 300dpi once they have been resized to the pic box size in question. The smaller the pic box size, the greater chance you have of this happening.
    You can save your book out as a PDF first, via the print menu, which allows you to check the quality of images and to make sure your captions look how you want them to. You will end up with a 300dpi PDF image which is exactly how the file will be sent to Apple - if your images look poor on your PDF preview, then they will look poor on the book you receive.
    You can resize and recrop images by double clicking them after you have dragged them to the book. This brings up a slider at the top of the image where the size can be altered. Dragging across the image will make the hand icon appear, and this is where you can alter the crop. Bear in mind though, that if you are already struggling with image resolutions, making images bigger will only make this problem worse.
    Hope that all helps and not confuses!

  • New book about virtualization and SAP systems

    Hi guys,
    for all of you this may be of interest: there is a new book available, which contains a lot of stuff about virtualization. It is not only VMware, but also Hyper-V, Xen and Sun Solaris Zones. Unfortunately the book is only available in german.
    It contains a good overview about each solution and how to use the virtualization solution for your SAP environment.
    The book can be ordered on amazon, bol etc.
    Regards
    André

    The book is good for beginners to help making a vendor decision and for intermediate users as an installation guide.
    It basically walks the reader through the installation of VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, SLES with Xen and Sun Solaris-Zones.
    I personally would have preferred to see a little bit more about optimization, but it is definitely a good first release.
    One word of warning: I ordered the book directly from SAP Press Germany and even though I got charged $25 for shipping it didn't arrive in prime condition. In fact all corners were bumped and there was also a minor cut across the side of the book. This seems to be caused by using a box for shipping that barely fits the book.
    Regardless of the shipping experience I recommend the book if you can read German.
    Cheers,
    Jens
