Performance and Capacity Planning

Establish a planning process for the review of performance and capacity of IT resources to ensure that cost-justifiable capacity and performance are available to process the agreed-upon workloads as determined by the SLAs. Capacity and performance plans should leverage appropriate modelling techniques to produce a model of the current and forecasted performance, capacity and throughput of the IT resources.
