Infrastructure Design
• Network recommendations• Traffic Isolation• Web• Database• Search• Service Applications• Authentication
• Number of NICs per server• Limit the number of hops• Colocation of servers

Infrastructure Design
• Physical• Benefits• No virtualization overhead• Ability to target DBs to separate physical spindles • Only OS limits on Hardware• Simple Networking
• Drawbacks• Backup & recovery time• Limited snapshot ability• Costly & lacking Centralized Management• Failover limitations
![Page 12: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Infrastructure Design
• Virtualization• Benefits• Snapshot capability• Rapid system deployment• HA\DR ability • Centralized Management
• Drawbacks• Loss of minimum 8% compute for overhead• Limitations on addressing full hardware• Disks are stored as single/multi-file • Centralized Networking

SQL Server Performance
• Pre-grow databases• Requires more space initially• Dramatic increase in performance• Databases like contiguous space
• Auto-growth • Immediately change from 1m increments• Do not use “Grow by %” setting• 50-100m maximum growth per required• Schedule maintenance task to check size & grow in off
peak hours as required

SQL Server Performance
• Sizing recommendations• Recommended limit for ContentDBs: 200G• Maximum supported: 4TB
• Includes Remote BLOBs
• Backup/Restore timing• Simple vs. Full recovery mode
![Page 16: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

SQL Server Performance
• Database Instance Isolation• Secure Store Database• SharePoint core databases• Content Databases• Search• Highly Transactional non-SharePoint DBs
• Drawback• Lose the central management in a single SQL Server
Management Studio window

SharePoint Server Performance
• Tier isolation vs. Location Proximity Requirements• Separation via vLAN• Less chatter• Increased hop count
• Collocating SharePoint in a single vLAN• Increased chatter• Lower hop count
• Key take away• Know your network, determine your topology based
upon traffic & requirements
![Page 18: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

SharePoint Server Performance
• Load balancing your App Tier• Know your load• Scale based upon need, not perception
• Find your choke point, then release the grasp
• Don’t assume, validate!
![Page 19: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

SharePoint Server Performance
• Load testing in your environment• Example• 2 Web Servers (4cores, 16GB RAM) using NLB• 1 App Server (4cores, 16 GB RAM)• 1 SQL Server Instance (16cores, 128GB RAM)
• Simple CRUD operations• Login, create list item, open item, modify item, save item,
delete item, log out
![Page 20: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

SharePoint Server Performance
• Load testing in your environment• Results• Farm was completely non-responsive at ~500 concurrent
users• Root cause• Watching this test on the server side we found that we were
immediately CPU bound • Conclusion• Add CPUs or Web Servers to the farm to handle additional
load
![Page 21: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

SharePoint Server Performance
• Governance & Troubleshooting• Determine tolerance for custom solutions• Encourage Sandbox Solutions
• Require SPDisposeCheck• Require SPMonitored Scope • If you don’t have a Dev/QA Environment, you don’t have
a Production Environment• Never test patches in Production• Educate on the Developer Dashboard
![Page 22: Sentri SharePoint Performance webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/555dae4ad8b42a68328b491e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

SharePoint Server Performance
• Governance & Troubleshooting• Never accept a solution that is not a WSP• Respect your users, or you won’t have any• Limit the number of Farm Admins• Minimize Server Sprawl• Audit your environment regularly• Survey your users regularly• Engage your Executive Sponsorship
