Capacity Forecaster predicts how transactions and capacity-affecting metrics will trend over time so you can plan infrastructure ahead of demand.
What you can do here
- Trend analysis. See month-by-month transaction growth at the cumulative and per-transaction level. Spot the workload mixes or clusters causing the most anomalies.
- Trend forecast report. Calculate the growth trend for transactions over a specific duration.
- Custom growth plan. Enter your own growth percentage on a transaction mix and get a detailed capacity forecast for every related metric.
Why use Capacity Forecasting
- Match capacity to workload patterns. Pinpoint the exact mix that drives the most resource contention (for example, high CPU plus high memory plus high I/O), and plan for the projected growth of that mix.
- Lower data center cost. Cut capacity-breach incidents and right-size services that are over-provisioned.
- Get ahead of signals. Forecast capacity early to plan infrastructure and configuration changes before they cause problems.
