BW Go live Optimization report

SAP AG always recommend to performing the SAP Going-Live Checks for your production system. Depending on the phase of your project, these checks, offered by SAP, analyze the hardware sizing, check the configuration of the server and components, find performance bottlenecks, and verify the capacity of CPU and memory. The results of the checks are issued in a report (approximately 50 pages) provided by SAP.

EP Going-Live Check Analysis Session (GA) - The GA session checks whether the available hardware is sufficient for the planned workload. Recommendations for the component settings are made.

EP Going-Live Check Optimization Session (GO) - The GO session simulates workload on the system and identifies performance bottlenecks and potential risks.

EP Going-Live Check Verification Session (GV) - The GV session checks the behavior of the production system after going live and provides appropriate recommendations.
