I came across this technical paper called Best Practices for Performance Tuning of Latency-Sensitive Workloads in vSphere VMs
Abstract from the paper:
This white paper summarizes findings and recommends best practices to tune the different layers of an application’s environment for latency-sensitive workloads.
If you are about to virtualize low-latency workloads or simply looking at tuning your existing virtual environment for such workloads, this is the technical paper you need read!
I like the tabulated summary at the end of the technical paper and I have pasted here a copy. Very convenient checklist.
Some of these technical papers are like diamonds. To stay on top of latest VMware technical papers and other information, create your own custom RSS feed at VMware.
