Enhancing Administrative Capabilities in Microsoft Performance Toolkit SDK for Improved System Monitoring and Optimization

[DanialPahlavan]

Is your feature request an entirely new concept?
I would like the Microsoft Performance Toolkit SDK to support administrative tools for real-time system monitoring and performance analysis.

Is your feature request related to an existing component?
It would enhance the current capabilities of the SDK by adding a new layer of functionality aimed at system administrators.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
While the existing toolkit is excellent for developers to analyze code and output performance, it lacks usability for regular end users and system administrators. There is no way for administrators to monitor real-time resource usage effectively and identify performance bottlenecks or misconfigurations that affect server speed and efficiency. For instance, users may install software and not be aware that certain frameworks or libraries used are outdated, potentially causing security issues or performance degradation. Additionally, software may not be optimized for the user's processor architecture or microcode execution, resulting in decreased performance.

Describe the solution you'd like
I propose adding features to the Microsoft Performance Toolkit SDK that integrate with administrative tools. These features should provide real-time monitoring of system resource usage, identify performance bottlenecks, and highlight any configurations in virtualizations that are causing inefficiencies. This would enable administrators to examine software performance and installed updates comprehensively. Before updates are released, these tools could also provide output reports for better benchmarking and management.

For example, an administrative feature could provide warnings about installed software that uses outdated frameworks or libraries, potentially posing security risks or performance inefficiencies. Additionally, the tool could analyze the compatibility of the software with the user’s processor architecture and microcode, providing insights to Intel or other processor manufacturers and software developers. This analysis could be done without showing the end user but reported back to the companies for optimization suggestions.

Furthermore, when software is developed and installed on a user’s system, performance reports should be accessible to developers. This way, software can be optimized based on various user scenarios, similar to how AI models are trained and evaluated using user feedback.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, the only alternative is to use separate performance monitoring tools and manually correlate their data with the developer tools provided by the Microsoft Performance Toolkit SDK. This process is cumbersome and does not provide a seamless workflow for administrators.

Additional context
By incorporating these features, the toolkit can bridge the gap between developers and end users. Administrators will be able to manage systems more effectively, ensuring no resources are wasted due to inefficient software or configurations. This will also create a pressure point for developers to optimize their applications, knowing that Windows will highlight poorly performing software to users.

Furthermore, the enhanced monitoring and reporting capabilities will not only improve system performance but also drive advancements in ARM processor optimization and make development more accessible across different devices, including tablets. This way, the toolkit will also identify drivers or multiple libraries causing software slowdowns. For example, some Intel processors that previously experienced high temperatures could be flagged for optimization immediately upon first use. Expanding the toolkit’s capabilities to include administrative monitoring tools will revolutionize system management and efficiency on Windows, fostering a new wave of optimized software development driven by real-time performance feedback.
