System and method for managing a computer system performance tuning initiative in a networked computing environment

摘要

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system and method for managing a computer system performance tuning initiative in a networked computing environment. A submission package including a plurality of individual fields identifying a software application candidate for performance tuning is received. Each field describes a quantifiable aspect of the candidate software application. Each field in the submission package is parsed into normalized content and the parsed content is evaluated for completeness and correctness. Approval of each evaluated submission package for performance tuning is solicited by presenting a percentage reflecting overall completeness and correctness. Tuner sign-up and status and tracking performance tuning progress are monitored following approval of each evaluated submission package. Results from the performance tuning are apprised upon completion.
