Plan your future infrastructure requirements in terms the business understands.

Managing day-to-day IT operations can be stressful.

Why is our e-commerce site slowing down at 11:00 pm every Thursday? How will I support the roll-out of a new service without adding more hardware?
If you had the analytics needed you’d be able to accurately isolate the problem and make an informed business decision.
Every IT shop has a dashboard of information that shows what’s happening at any given time.
Most of you will have a selection of tools but with each one only able to handle a specific task, or conduct random samplings, it’s difficult to get a complete snapshot of what’s really happening.

Capacity planning is an important step in forecasting how IT can support the growing needs of the business. One of the challenges that you have is simply knowing which servers and components serve which applications to begin with and let’s face it, without this knowledge it‘s difficult to go through a proper capacity planning process.

Our recent link up with Correlsense means that you can trace transactions and their paths through the datacenter. By feeding transaction contextual data into Metron’s Athene modelling software this data can then become the basis for addressing all of the capacity questions faced by an organization.  It means you can predict the effect of change at a granularity that means something in terms of business functions, for example, what if we get more sales, what if we merge with ACME Corp?
This provides you with a valuable insight into the performance of your enterprise data center infrastructure never previously available, and gives you a sound basis from which to plan your future infrastructure requirements in terms the business understands.
