Abstract
The invention provides a method for determining the allocation of a transaction cluster to a plurality of computing systems. For the plurality of computing systems there is obtained a baseline indicator of the time taken to execute a baseline transaction cluster. The allocation of transactions in the cluster is modified and the modified cluster is executed to determine the time taken to execute the modified cluster. If the time taken by the modified cluster is less than the time taken by the baseline cluster, the modified cluster is set as the new baseline cluster.
Claims14
A method for determining the allocation of transaction clusters to a plurality of computing systems, comprising the steps of, for each of the computing systems, obtaining a baseline indicator of the time taken to execute a baseline transaction cluster, modifying the transaction cluster, executing the modified cluster, determining the time taken to execute the modified cluster, and if the time taken by the modified cluster is less than the time taken by the baseline cluster, utilising the modified cluster as the baseline cluster for future allocations.
A system for determining the allocation of transaction clusters to a plurality of computing systems, comprising means for accessing a baseline indicator of the time taken to execute a baseline transaction cluster on each of the plurality of computing system, computing means for modifying the transaction cluster, executing means for executing the modified cluster, determining means for determining the time taken to execute the modified cluster, wherein, if the time taken by the modified cluster is less than the time taken by the baseline cluster, the modified cluster is retained in a database as the baseline cluster.
A method of processing a transaction cluster, comprising the steps of analysing the incoming transaction cluster to determine the number of transactions, utilizing the analysis to determine whether an optimized transaction processing profile is available, and if so, utilizing the optimized transaction processing profile.
