Capacity planning ties the business to IT, answering the questions: How does my business activity relate to my technical infrastructure?  How much business growth is sustainable before performance is impacted and customers are affected? What will be the expected impact on end-user response times to changes in architecture? Do I have too many underutilized resources?  Where are they?  Which applications can share which resources?  What is the impact of virtualization?

Business challenge Business today is a quickly changing landscape. Whether changes are coming from outside your company or from within, keeping the IT infrastructure responsive by ensuring that it is at maximum availability and performance is critical to staying competitive.
Best practices call for a continuous process of measuring, assessing, analyzing, and proactively managing the performance and capacity of your infrastructure, while factoring in both business and IT change. The challenge, however, is implementing these best practices under the tight budgetary constraints faced by most IT organizations.
Few companies have the hardware, software and personnel resources needed for on-going management and optimization of performance and capacity. The option of adding hardware to improve performance produces temporary results. Strong IT governance consistent with ITIL best practices requires a true understanding of the baseline performance of critical applications, business processes, and IT infrastructure not just more powerful hardware. Finally, increasing capacity to conceal performance issues is not a viable solution, and it means more money spent on yet another temporary investment.
