Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise
Performance and Tuning (5 Days) CTI 205 This course is designed to develop
skills necessary to effectively
troubleshoot and performance tune
an Adaptive Server 12.5 Enterprise
environment. Utilize Sybase Central
to analyze performance statistics and
tune cache areas to reduce physical
I/O. Understand the tuning
requirements of online transaction
processing systems, decision support
systems and batch-oriented system.
Exercises and lab sessions reinforce
the learning objectives and provide
participants the opportunity to gain
practical hands-on experience.
Required Prerequisites: Sybase
