Abstract
A customer-facing overhead management tool reduces the task of feature configuration to adjusting a scale representing relative feature availability. Features are configured by adjusting a graphical control element presented on a graphical user interface to activate or deactivate features based on relative weights and priorities associated with the features. Weights and priorities are stored within a configuration file underlying the control element and indicate an approximate order in which features will be deactivated upon 'dialing down' the available features. The control element facilitates application resource management for the customer, as the customer may configure features to reduce overhead without knowledge of the underlying feature priorities and weights or relative overhead each feature incurs when activated. Customers may override the automatic feature adjustment by manually activating features which have been deactivated following a lowering of the value on the control element.
