Performance Assessment: Livelink ECM – Enterprise Server on ESX(i) VMware

This document explores the performance impact with virtualization of Livelink ECM – Enterprise Server (LES) using ESX(i) VMware™. The goal is to get an idea of the performance impact that virtualization would have on LES and how different it is from that under a native bare-metal server.

The tests are divided into two main types: a load test, to observe the performance of the software under anticipated peak usage; and a stress test, to observe the performance of the software under saturation.

Tests were carried out on a single LES instance front-end on both ESX(i) VMware and bare-metal set-ups under a varying load to understand the behavior of the system. The same LES Admin Server and DB Server were used during each test.
