Deployment Options

Any CA Performance Center deployment requires additional servers to host data sources. Data source system requirements vary widely. Consult the data source Release Notes for deployment guidelines and system requirements.

CA has performed comprehensive testing of three different deployment scenarios with different numbers of managed items. The number of managed items translates to a rate of metric data that is processed:

• 15,000 metrics per second; 100,000 managed items (smaller deployment)
• 75,000 metrics per second; 500,000 managed items (medium-size deployment)
• 150,000 metrics per second; 1,000,000 managed items (large deployment)

The system requirements in this document reflect the differing requirements of these three environments.
