Abstract
Methods and systems for capacity planning of server resources are described wherein fixed resources of a server cluster are used in comparison to similar server cluster benchmarks to determine the maximum load—requests per second—that can be handled by the server cluster. The maximum load is used to determine utilization of server resources and to provide estimates of server resource utilization for hypothetical loads. A recommendation as to changes to server resources to handle the hypothetical loads is displayed to the user.
