RESOURCE UTILIZATION

Compute, storage and network consumption is checked tool by tool, when someone remembers. Idle resources burn budget while hot spots throttle services, and neither shows up until it hurts.

Actors

  • Capacity Planner
  • Infrastructure Engineer
  • Head of Infrastructure

Systems / Vendors

  • SolarWinds
  • VMware vCenter
  • Splunk

Business Question

"Are we running out of capacity or wasting it? Honestly, it depends which tool you ask."

What SPoG Does

  • Monitors real-time consumption of compute, storage and network resources in one view.
  • Flags both saturation risks and idle waste against usage baselines.
  • Feeds live utilization into planning so provisioning follows demand, not fear.
