What I intended to infer is that Finance Directors are quite receptive to ideas, until it comes to the actual spending! My first statement started with the allocation of funds. The FD was just a qualifier. On Tue, Jan 3, 2012 at 17:10, Joseph Maina <mainasoft00@gmail.com> wrote:

We have reason to believe that KNEC used some of the best developers available, but just couldn't allocate the funds for the server - you know how it gets when the guy at the head of IT is the Finance Director:-) If they found those to be expensive too, then I am not sure what to say. Unfortunately, all we have at our disposal is imaginations. When you get an overloaded SQL server, the problem can be both ways - poor design, insufficient hardware resources. Let's give them the benefit of doubt - that at least the developers thought/projected the amount of queries per second they'd be handling during the peak performance.

Everyone here is assuming the problem is the hardware.
How sure are we the application was well designed to be robust and scalable? The solution to performance is not always bigger/faster/more hardware!
