dc1.jpgBack in the day, data center managers were told that response time, system availability and uptime were the most important metrics for measuring data center performance.  This resulted in a trend for over-engineering solutions to insure that these key metrics were met or exceeded.  Unfortunately, yesterday’s solutions are now today’s problems.  With electricity costs at an all time high and a heighted awareness of the impact of data center energy usage on the environment, never has capacity planning been a bigger concern for data center managers across the globe.

The nlyte Data Center Performance Management (DCPM) suite helps companies make better, informed decisions about the management of their data centers and the DCPM process cycle provides the steps to make intelligent capacity planning decisions.  Once you have discovered and stored the asset configuration data in nlyte’s performance management database, you can quickly and easily visualize your data center’s available capacity for space, cooling, power, network connections, storage, and virtualization.

Intelligent Capacity Planning (ICP) moves beyond simple visualization to identify opportunities for capacity right-sizing.  Our new nlyte Predict Module uses sophisticated analytics to accurately forecast capacity based on historical trends and planned events.  Once you have a clear vision of the future, you can take the necessary steps to optimize the capacity you have left.

Knowing how future changes should affect the current capacity is a great advantage for long-range planning, but what about today’s capacity problems?  With nlyte, you can model potential changes in your data center to assess the cascading affects on all aspects of measurable capacity.  Once the best course of action is determined through extensive modeling, nlyte Control guides your personnel through the steps of implementing these changes using ITIL best practices and procedures.
