Punctuality call center metric
A method of measuring server performance includes recording a time of queuing a request by a client for primary resources managed by the server; recording an estimated wait time for responding to the request for primary resources; recording a time of service for the request for primary resources; and calculating a punctuality metric of the request for primary resources by subtracting the difference between the time of service and the time of queuing from the estimated wait time. The punctuality metric is representative of the performance of the server.
1. A method of measuring server performance, said server having a primary queue and an accessory device having an auxiliary queue, said accessory device managing said primary queue with said auxiliary queue, said method comprising:
intercepting from said primary queue a request by a client for primary resources managed by said server;
queuing said request for primary resources in said auxiliary queue;
recording in said accessory device a time of queuing said request for primary resources;
recording in said accessory device an estimated wait time for responding to said request for primary resources;
returning said request for primary resources to said primary queue;
recording a time of service for said request for primary resources; and
calculating a punctuality metric of said request for primary resources by subtracting the difference between said time of service and said time of queuing from said estimated wait time, said punctuality metric being representative of the performance of said server.
2. A method of measuring the performance of an automatic call director, said automatic call director having a primary queue and an accessory device having an auxiliary queue, said accessory device managing said primary queue with said auxiliary queue, said method comprising:
intercepting a call from said primary queue;
queuing said call in said auxiliary queue;
recording in said accessory device a time of queuing a said call;
recording in said accessory device an estimated wait time for said call;
returning said call to said primary queue;
recording a time of service for said call; and
calculating a punctuality metric of said call by subtracting the difference between said time of service and said time of queuing from said estimated wait time, said punctuality metric being representative of the performance of said automatic call director.
