Actionable Capacity Forecasting
What is it?
• Detailed capacity trends
• Intelligent recommendations
• Powered by patent pending
machine learning
X-Fit algorithm
Benefits:
• Enables pay as you grow
capacity expansion
• Eliminates guesswork
Examine Resource Usage/Wastage
Dead VM – VMs that haven’t been powered
on for a while
Overprovisioned VMs – VMs with peak usage
below provisioned capacity

Just-in-time Capacity Expansion
• What-if for a pre-defined workload type
• What-if for a group of VMs with different
configurations and behaviors
• What-if for an expected demand
change of existing running workloads
• What-if for increasing the runway
• What-if for new Infrastructure
Ensure capacity expansion to meet the future workload growth.
