Performance goals and criteria http://www.viewpoints-and-perspectives.info/home/perspectives/performance-and-scalability/
My sketch on the software architectural concerns for the LSCS project, such as performance, service downtime and severed connection due to timely access issues, traversing spatial and time for data during sort in memory/DB, external service DB alternate switch when service, halt, delay or downtime, real vs. fictitious data report to parse, and who is the parser or part of a (sub)system as a collective solution: Download Link (same link above).
