Recommended deployment of applications and hardware

BMC published guidelines for hardware sizing based on a series of enterprise-scale tests to demonstrate the scalability and performance of the following applications:

  • BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite (BMC Remedy ITSM Suite)
  • BMC Service Request Management
  • BMC Knowledge Management
  • BMC Atrium Configuration Management Database (BMC Atrium CMDB) applications

Note

These tests were conducted by BMC and Dell at the Dell Solution Center in Austin, Texas in December, 2011. For the benchmarking results, see the Performance and Scalability of 7.6.04 SP1 BMC Remedy IT Service Management Suite, BMC Service Request Management, BMC Knowledge Management, and BMC Atrium on Windows white paper.

Review the following hardware requirements for sizing carefully.
