Capacity is the amount of resources needed to run service or services for fulfilling the requirement.<\/p>\n
In computing it could be RAM capacity\/ storage capacity or computing capability<\/p>\n
Capacity planning involves planning capacity to address future and present needs and it involves steps as<\/p>\n
Step 1 : Bottom-Up Capacity<\/p>\n
Analyze current system capacity<\/p>\n
Step 2 : Primary Drivers<\/p>\n
Figure out present resource usage and their utilization.<\/p>\n
Step 3 : Theoretical Minimum Capacity<\/p>\n
Deduce the minimum capacity needed in present setup\u00a0 or\u00a0 for tasks the system is accomplishing<\/p>\n
Step 4 : Past Predicts Future<\/p>\n
Use past capacity changes for requirement fulfilment<\/p>\n
Step 5 : Assumptions<\/p>\n
Focus on assumptions for future systems and their designs. Also, include risks to be taken in\u00a0 terms of\u00a0 assumptions made.<\/p>\n
Step 6 : Risks<\/p>\n
Mitigate or accept risks as part of the capacity planning. Mitigation is done \u00a0by addressing the risk and acceptance is resolved by making suitable provisions as applicable with aim of lowest cost for resolution. At least plan for long term for resources like 3\/5 years.<\/p>\n
PLAN B<\/p>\n
Develop a backup plan<\/p>\n
