System Performance Monitoring Checklist ( IT )

This checklist is designed to ensure that system performance is regularly monitored and assessed to maintain optimal operation and identify potential issues before they escalate.

• Identify Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  Determine the critical KPIs that will be monitored, such as CPU usage, memory usage, disk I/O, and network latency.

• Select Monitoring Tools

  Choose appropriate monitoring tools that can track the identified KPIs effectively, such as Nagios, Zabbix, or Prometheus.

• Set Up Monitoring Alerts

  Configure alerts for when KPIs exceed predefined thresholds to ensure immediate action can be taken.

• Schedule Regular Performance Reviews

  Establish a routine to review system performance data, analyze trends, and make necessary adjustments.

• Document Performance Review Findings

  Keep detailed records of performance reviews, issues identified, and steps taken to resolve them for future reference.

• Engage in Continuous Improvement

  Regularly revisit and refine the monitoring process and KPIs based on past performance and system changes.
