Another buzzword soup article about a vaguely defined and poorly explained topic that is not backed up by the single source in it. After the first five words, the entire content is original research and something of a how-to guide.

I could find no other sources that mention this topic. All I found was a strange-looking eBook with the same title but whose blurb and free snippet makes me suspect it's about marketing, rather than engineering, balderdash. Reyk _YO! 04:05, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I don't think it is buzzword soup, rather the content is a poor summary of the single source; the mentioned laws and performance ratios are verifiable in the (rather well-known) paper cited. That said, the paper is about operational analysis of queueing networks, not "performance operational analysis". That title seems to be made up and a synthesis of this type of operational analysis with performance engineering, a broader topic in IT. This particular topic doesn't seem to have coverage in RS and thus counts as original research. We probably could and should have an article on OA of queueing systems, but this article isn't it. Without RS backing it up, I recommend deletion. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 11:16, 28 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
