[AIAS-02] Define the optimization steps

Finally, you can define the steps the study will go through.

Typically, an Akamas study is composed of:

• a baseline step, which is used to assess the system performance in the initial configuration (e.g. the settings currently in place for your system)

• an optimize step, which is used to execute the actual AI-driven performance optimization

The Akamas study wizard already creates these two steps for you.

In this study, we simply configure the baseline configuration by setting jvm_maxHeapSize to 1024MB:

Then click on the Optimize step in the left panel to specify the optimization configuration.

For now, simply set the number of experiments to execute to 30:

Now click on Create Study.

You have now created your first study and you are ready to start the optimization!

You can review your study in the Definition tab or go and launch the study by pressing the Start button:
