Visa's Peak Holiday Processing Volumes
InformationWeek reports on the planning that went into preparing Visa's VisaNet systems for handling peak holiday season volumes.
The company, which Monday reported a sharp increase in holiday-related shopping transactions, spent much of the year preparing its mainframe to handle a peak rate of 5,200 VisaNet transaction messages per second. Visa said Tuesday that the system reached its peak on Christmas Eve at 5,119 transaction messages a second.
