Medium Profile Performance Testing FIM Synchronization

Applies To: Forefront Identity Manager, Forefront Identity Manager 2010

The medium organization profile for this initial FIM 2010 R2 Synchronization performance test is described in the following table.

Scale	Topology	Hardware
Single forest 50,000 users 50,000 groups Average of 20 users per group	Three servers FIM 2010 R2 Synchronization Service and FIM 2010 R2 Synchronization database collocated on one server FIM 2010 R2 Portal, FIM 2010 R2 Service collocated on one server FIM 2010 R2 Service database	SQL Server database servers have the same hardware. 16-GB SDRAM Four quad-core processors Hard disk volumes: Single volume and spindle for the operating system Single volume and spindle for log files Single volume with four spindles in a RAID 10 configuration for data Server hosting FIM 2010 R2 Service and FIM 2010 R2 Portal hardware 4-GB SDRAM Single (quad-core) processor Single hard disk volume with one spindle

The tests and results shown in the following table were performed using legacy provisioning. As with the previous test, the Active Directory management agent was connected to a single Active Directory forest and the File management agent exported the provisioned users to a file. Similarly, the Active Directory Management Agent import was performed from a file instead of from an actual Active Directory database. This was done to avoid introducing network delays into the test environment. You should consider the effect of delays based on the network traffic specific to the organization in which you are implementing FIM 2010 when estimating synchronization performance.
