Access point management is described. In an implementation, a method includes selecting one of a plurality of clients, in which each of the clients has a client profile which describes the client's experience with one or more of a plurality of access points. The selecting is performed based on one or more of the client profiles. A determination is made as to whether at least one of the access points utilized by the selected client should be replaced by another one of the access points. The determination includes establishing whether a difference between a connectivity score for the at least one access point and a connectivity score for the other access point exceeds an inertia value.

Capacity management is described. In an implementation, a method includes executing a module on a computing device to monitor use of a product during a measurement interval to determine a maximum capacity of the product used during the measurement interval and whether a capacity failure point is reached during the measurement interval. A learned capacity limit is set based on the monitoring for determining whether one or more of a plurality of clients, if any, are to receive a list which references at least the monitored product, wherein the learned capacity limit is set such that when the capacity failure point is not reached, the learned capacity limit is set according to the maximum capacity.

Capacity management

In many computer systems, the rate of data from an input source may become significantly faster than a processor's ability to respond. This situation occurs when a faster and more modern system writes to an older and slower legacy system. The result of this interaction between disparate capacity systems may be system failure or data corruption, particularly due to overloading the slower system's input queue to the point where it can no longer catch up to its workload. The invention provides a method, system, and computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for transferring data between disparate capacity systems. The method comprises the steps of receiving transactions from a first computer system at a first rate and providing the transactions to a second computer system, wherein the second computer system receives the transactions at a second rate. The second computer system may be a database legacy database server and the first computer system may be an updated database server The second rate is set at a capacity of the second computer system. The method further delays for a predetermined period of time the transactions when the first rate exceeds the second rate. The predetermined period of time is a function of the second rate.
