Patent ID: 10725886

Abstract:
A method for capacity planning of a DBSM network, includes selecting at least one RESOURCE against which the TARGET_SYSTEM will be optimized, selecting at least one performance counter for which a planning engine forecast is created, collecting said performance counter MONITORING_DATA, defining rules for each performance counter against which a predicted TIME_SERIES is validated, adjusting SOURCE_SYSTEM OBJECT CONSTRAINTS and TIME_SERIES data, defining TARGET_SYSTEM LOGICAL_TOPOLOGY with desired OBJECTS setup, preferred configurations, maximum count for each setup OBJECT type and possible processing order, adjusting TARGET_SYSTEM OBJECT CONSTRAINTS, benchmarks and TIME_SERIES data, evaluating and comparing all needed refactored SOURCE_SYSTEM OBJECT TIME_SERIES against given TARGET_SYSTEM with preconfigured LOGICAL_TOPOLOGY and processing order of OBJECT SETUP_DATA to have minimum amount of primary target RESOURCE defined in total for all TARGET_SYSTEM host servers meeting their respective CONSTRAINTS and outputting results. The invention also relates to a computer program product for implementing said method.
