With Athene, Metron offer one view for client-server Capacity Planning. In the past, the mainframe was the only element that needed to be included in a capacity plan. Now the situation is much more complex. The mainframe is just one component in a multi-tier client-server network supporting critical applications. Capacity Planning must encompass the mainframe and all the other servers, clients and networks inclusive of whatever operating system or topology they use.
Athene Client-Server predicts end-to-end response times for different types of work, whether their processing is local to one machine or distributed across many.
Response time distribution figures support service level management. By showing the contribution of each element to the total service level problem areas are quickly and easily identified for further analysis.
