Many individuals within an organization look at Virtualization
Capacity Management as a “Black Art” or something only “Techies”
understand.
In reality Virtualization Capacity Management is more of
a business practice with the technical data used to show the effect on the
enterprise. The objective of introducing virtualization into an enterprise is
to provide an increased efficiency of resources.
I am a Big Bang
Theory fan and Sheldon is always speaking over many of the characters heads
with his knowledge and technical ‘dribble drabble’, as Penny calls it. There is one particular episode in which
Penny asks Sheldon to teach her what physics is so she can talk to Leonard
about the subject
In his own inimitable way, Sheldon finally gives Penny the words that help her understand physics
With this in mind Hollywood and the way top TV shows and
blockbuster movies capture a person’s attention can be used in relation to
Capacity Management. What are the five
key ingredients that make for a successful movie?
·
it makes you ask questions
·
it keeps you engaged and holds your attention
·
it is told in story format and there is a
relationship created with the viewer
·
The end of the movie or show relates to the
beginning and often you have that “Ah Ha” moment
·
There are one or more items that the viewer
remembers in detail afterwards
How do we take these ingredients and show Capacity
Management in a way that benefits both the technical staff and the business
user?
When speaking of Virtualization Capacity Management, the
capacity manager performs the function of director and weaves the presentation
via reports through the script to tell a story.
The final outcome is an ending that you hope resonates with the audience
and shows how it affects that individual.
On Thursday, November 21, I’ll be hosting a webinar “Virtualization
Capacity Management and Hollywood” which will cover:
- How various functions within capacity management can relate to Hollywood movies
