Agenda
• A brief overview of ITIL Capacity Management
• The need for both component data and transaction data to do effective Capacity Management
• How Sharepath can help you monitor your transactions
• How Athene can provide component data and business data and a framework for effective Capacity Management reporting, analysis, and planning
• How Athene and Sharepath can provide an integrated solution for effective Capacity Management

What is ITIL (v3)?
• Good practice for IT Service Management
• Based on the Service Management Lifecycleo Service Strategyo Service Designo Service Transitiono Service Operationo Continual Service Improvement

ITIL Capacity Management
• Goal
• Purpose
• Objectives
• Scope
![Page 5: Transaction-based Capacity Planning for greater IT Reliability™ webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54820da9b47959e70c8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
ITIL Capacity Management
• Three levels of Capacity Managemento Businesso Serviceo Component
• Requirements most often flow “top-down” and data and information “bottom-up”
![Page 6: Transaction-based Capacity Planning for greater IT Reliability™ webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54820da9b47959e70c8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Capacity Management Activities
• Iterative activitieso Monitoring, Analysis, Tuning, Implementation
• Demand Management
• Modeling
• Application sizing
• Modeling
• Storing data in the CMIS
• Completing the Capacity Plan
![Page 7: Transaction-based Capacity Planning for greater IT Reliability™ webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54820da9b47959e70c8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Capacity Management: Basic questions that need answers
• What is the expected business growth next year, and how will it affect our IT infrastructure?
• Which infrastructure items (servers and logical components) are serving which business applications and services?
• How will the relationship between the underlying components affect services levels and in a wider context the business that uses them?
• Which infrastructure components can be consolidated without degrading service levels?
![Page 8: Transaction-based Capacity Planning for greater IT Reliability™ webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54820da9b47959e70c8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Today’s Capacity Management Challenge
Planning ahead to achieve service levels while managing:
Business Constant Change, M&A
Service Complex, Multi-Tiered Architectures, SOA
ComponentHeterogeneous, Dynamic (Virtualization,
Cloud)

Many kinds of data needed
• Business data
• Service data
• Component data
• Financial data
• Relationships
![Page 10: Transaction-based Capacity Planning for greater IT Reliability™ webinar](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051610/54820da9b47959e70c8b46d6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sharepath from Correlsense
• Allows you to monitor all real-user transactions in production
• Allows you to capture statistics from all the hops in the infrastructure
• Builds a map that shows the relationships between IT components even in very complicated environments
• Provides statistics for many different functions in an organization, including Capacity Management
