Capacity Management Challenges in the 21st Century
Today’s server complexities, combined with new architectures, virtualization, and the sheer scale of the management challenge require an entirely new approach towards realizing the many benefits of true Capacity Management.
Whether automating the latest in dynamic configurations, or simply gaining the necessary insight to correctly size anticipated infrastructure deployments, what is required is a way to gain appropriate intelligence about required resource decisions in a timely fashion. Plans must simultaneously be:
- Accurate – errors mean service downtime, increased costs, or both
- Flexible enough to meet dynamic business environments – if it doesn’t match your business its worthless
- Quickly available – you don’t have days, weeks or months for answers
- Resource Efficient – Most importantly, IT organizations cannot simply “throw staff resources” at the challenge of Capacity Management.
A solution to these challenges is urgently required that is:
- easy to use
- quick to deploy
- adaptable to changing technical and business requirements
- scalable to the largest virtual and physical infrastructures
- completely automated
Solution Labs Inc. was specifically founded to deliver exactly this solution.
Testimonials
“Extending Performance Surveyor to other sources of data in order to deliver higher business views and value couldn’t be any easier! I literally just point it at the additional database, such as VMWare Virtual Center data, and then do a simple “cut/paste” from existing functions in Performance Surveyor that I might want to apply to the new data. Then I have a new analysis module available for use against these new metrics! The graphical user interface’s ability to automatically “discover” the changes that I make really makes customization a snap.”
