LAMP Proposal

Live Production Systems

Following details are required:

• Number of users
• Hours of use during the day
• Peak or sensitive periods
• Level of activity (transactions per day)
• Quality of service
  1. Speed of response for a user
  2. Speed of restore after failure
  3. Turn around time for a support request
• Type of data stored and usage

VM's and Applications

To keep applications separate, it would be a good idea to have one application per VM.

Is this a good idea? Can anyone see variations on this? For example:

• Does it apply to test systems?
• Does it apply to dev systems (eg: TRAC, svn)?
