What are Infrastructure Capacity Planning Tools?
Infrastructure capacity planning tools use simulations and analytical modeling to forecast future IT resource requirements. The information they provide improves IT service delivery, contributes to cost-effective IT infrastructure resource utilization, and helps ensure adequate capacity is available for future growth.
Using historical data these simulations and models identify how workload or infrastructure changes will impact IT infrastructure performance. They pinpoint the areas that are likely to become bottlenecks or constraints and identify areas where resources are unbalanced or underutilized. This information facilitates reserving, scheduling, and allocating IT infrastructure resources for onboarding new applications.
Workload simulation and analytical modeling cover the areas of CPU usage, memory usage, disk usage, network usage, database, and app performance inclusive of physical, virtual, and cloud-based resources. They support IBM, Linux (AIX, Solaris, HP-UX), Oracle, HP, Virtual (VMware, Hyper-V, Xen), and Windows systems and servers along with all the major cloud service providers, AWS, Azure, Google, and IBM.
