Make Room for Growth.
Future IT infrastructure capacity needs are notoriously difficult to predict. How much processing power, storage, or power will you need for your organization in six months? A year? Savvis’ Capacity Planning Assessment service helps you align your current infrastructure capabilities with your projected needs by strategizing with senior business executives as well as your IT staff on plans for growth.
Our Three-Step Methodology.
Savvis’ Capacity Planning Assessment service implements three successive steps to help you come to the most accurate prediction of your future needs possible:
Where you are now. Our consultants — who have acquired considerable capacity assessment and planning experience through Savvis’ own rapid infrastructure growth — take a snapshot of your current infrastructure capacity.
Where you should be. Then we analyze your future requirements based on your own assessment of where your business is heading. From applications to network and storage, we identify the potential stressors on all aspects of your infrastructure if your business expands. This is compared to your current state, and a “gap analysis” performed to identify the inconsistencies.
How to get from here to there. Finally, we provide you with ways to bridge the gap. Our recommendations can include data center consolidation, data center redesign, better allocation of IT resources, and IT staff training.
