SAP Performance Optimization Guide from SAP-Press

This is one of the SAP R3 based best book I ever had. Actually, I don't own it but my company does :D. Dr. Thomas Schneider (author of this book) is highly specialized on SAP system performance optimization for couple years experienced so that he can explained and wrote briefly about how to trace performance bottleneck, how to trace it, how to exclude it, and how to fix it.

Dr. Schneider has write such a great book that gave us SAP Basis to get clearly explanation about what is happenning on our SAP R3 system.
This book describes how you can optimize the performance of your SAP solution and ensure it operates as cost-effectively as possible. Learn how to systematically identify and analyze performance problems, implement appropriate tuning measures, and evaluate their effectiveness. The book covers both technical optimization as well as the monitoring of applications. From hardware, to your ABAP and Java programs, to database access each potential performance bottleneck is highlighted, along with corresponding instructions and valuable tips — provided directly from support professionals at SAP. This fifth edition has been completely revised and updated for SAP NetWeaver 7.0. New sections cover topics related to the analysis of Web Dynpro applications, the SAP J2EE engine, SAP JVM, and SAP Solution Manager Diagnostics.
Here are briefly highlight about this books :

- Monitoring Hardware, Database and SAP Basis

The 4th edition of this book has explain about SAP 4.6, SAP R3 4.7, SAP ECC 5. If you bought the new one (5th edition) has included SAP ECC 6 also. I highly recommended that every SAP Basis should have this book. Ask your company to buy it. Not so expensive. Happy reading, guys !!
