With CCM you gain real business value….
Increased Visibility Improved Provisioning Reduced CAPEX/OPEX
• Total capacity
• Resource utilization
• Organizational silos
• Consumption of IT resources
• Better planning
• Just-in-time
• Effective resource utilization
• Energy savings
• Streamlined processes

Looking closer … increased visibility
• Capacity across IT
• Capacity across facilities
• Unified view

Looking closer … increased visibility
• Capacity across IT
• Capacity across facilities
• Unified view
Monitor breaker used by VM clusters
Alarm = power exceeds capacity rating
Power issues visible before they present a problem
View IT Utilization on same clusters

Looking closer … increased visibility
• Capacity across IT
• Capacity across facilities
• Unified view
Indication of productive and unproductive power usage
Unproductive power = potential to reduce IT Equipment
Reduced IT equipment = increased efficiency & less power

Looking closer … improved provisioning capabilities
• Capacity analysis – What
• “What-if” analysis - Where
• Deployment - How

Looking closer … reduced OPEX & CAPEX
• Optimization of software
• Optimization of hardware
• Risk mitigation

Adopt a phased approach to getting started …
Centralize your data archiveStep #1• Consolidate data collection practices• Aggregate capacity-related data from across the organization
Map your service relationshipsStep #2• Leverage your CMDB to understand infrastructure – services dependencies• Visualize, map and manage capacity
Model trends, plan capabilitiesStep #3• Historical and real-time capacity = clear understanding of capacity constraints• Utilize “what-if” scenario analysis to gauge impact of future growth
