- 23. | cloudWizTM Step 1: Plan Capacity Capacity planning is a vital component of cloud computing adoption that involves understanding necessary resource requirements in order to meet the anticipated needs of customers and users. Companies who are able to predict their computing needs can reserve capacity and plan for their predicted usage based on their IT budgets. Other models allow organizations to utilize an on-demand, pay- per-use model which may be more economical. © Gravitant, Inc. All Rights Reserved. cloudMatrix Version 5.0
- 24. | cloudWizTM Step 2: Compare Vendors Once a cloudWiz user has filled out their current resource utilization and projected demand, they can then compare vendors, side-by- side. Our inbuilt standardized vendor catalog allows cloud users to compare prices from multiple providers in an expedia-like interface and then optimize for the best vendor based on individual goals and constraints such as cost, QoS and best match. © Gravitant, Inc.
