Case Study: Cooper Industries achieves 24/7 SharePoint performance and faster issue resolution with Metalogix Software (Metalogix Diagnostic Manager)

Cooper Industries Shines Light On SharePoint Server-Side Performance Data

Cooper Industries, a global manufacturer with data centers in Germany, China and the U.S., was migrating 200 GB across 2,500 SharePoint sites from SharePoint 2007 to 2010 and needed to stop frequent, hard-to-diagnose server crashes. To get detailed, server-side performance visibility they turned to Metalogix Software and its Metalogix Diagnostic Manager to pinpoint what was causing outages and performance bottlenecks across their distributed SharePoint environment.

Metalogix Software deployed Metalogix Diagnostic Manager to provide granular IIS and load statistics, per-page/web part diagnostics, configurable thresholds and 24/7 automated alerts and dashboards. The solution let Cooper Industries’ administrators drill down to the root causes of problems, detect outages immediately instead of the next day, and resolve issues faster while supporting ~8,000 registered users (4,000 unique monthly). As a result Cooper has stabilized its SharePoint performance during migration, reduced unexpected downtime and gained capacity-planning insight for the completed SharePoint 2010 rollout.
