In nearly two decades of working with both large and small clients, one thing became clear: planning for future growth is a problem many customers struggle with.
Customers wanted answers to questions like:
- When will my current data center floor space be exhausted?
- If we are planning to build a new data center, what percentage of unused space should I plan for 5 or 10 years in the future?
- What factors are important for this kind of planning? Storage, CPU, and technology shrinkage? Business growth, server virtualization, and disaster recovery capabilities?
- How can we estimate these factors of growth and shrinkage simultaneously?
