At Practical Performance Analyst we believe that education should be freely accessible by everyone. We strongly believe that information should be open and that it is in sharing information that we all grow. At Practical Performance Analyst we will always strive to create the best content on topics related to Software Performance Engineering. Our movement is focussed on increasing awareness and creating capacbility globally on Software Performance Engineering by simplifying the concepts and making them easy to consume.

The only thing that's constant in this world they say is change and change is coming to the Practical Performance Analyst.

The journey has just begun, we've taken our first baby steps but we still have a long way to go.

So what is it about Software Performance Engineering that gets us so excited. What is the buzz all about and why should you as a Practical Performance Analyst get exicted about the work we are doing. Let's start off by taking a look at what Software Performance Engineering stands for and the roles played by a Practical Performance Analyst within the Performance Engineering team in an enterprise. We'll them move onto some of reasons why we think being a Practical Performance Analyst helps you stand out in a crowd.

Am happy to see the interest that Practical Performance Analyst has created among the community and the exponentially growing traffic to the portal tells me that we've got something good going on here. However, there is a lot of work that needs to be done to keep this initiative going and to sustain it over the longer run i would need support from individuals like yourself.

We've just added a dedicated section for contributing authors at Practical Performance Analyst. The first author to go live is Dr. Rajesh Mansharamani who has contributed a lot of tutorials on different aspects of Performance Engineering. We hope that as Practical Performance Analysts you find them interesting and highly relevant to what you are doing.

At Practical Performance Analyst, the intention has always been to build a strong community focussed on supporting and creating relevant content in different areas of Performance Engineering. We completely understand that as Practical Performance Analysts each of you have our own specialization and from time to time are tasked with different challenges across the Performance Engineering life cycle. So, here's an opportunity for you to share your point of view and tell us what is it you would like us to cover in future articles.

Things are gradually beginning to fall in place but we still have a long way to go and a large amount of work needs to be done in a lot of different areas.

Welcome, The Practical Performance Analyst is now open for business. I have been thinking about launching the site for a few years now but just haven't had the time and other things have been at the top of my priority list. It's time to set aside those excuses and begin work on what I have been dreaming about. This website is for you, the "Practical Performance Analyst" who might be involved in Performance & Capacity Management of systems in one way or the other.
