VKernels Capacity Analyzer will enable you to achieve maximum performance with the right amount of resources. Capacity Analyzer is the only ESX monitoring software that actually predicts problems days before they occur so you have time to fix them.
Designed for enterprise scalability, Capacity Analyzer proactively monitors shared CPU, memory, network, and disk (storage and disk I/O) utilization trends in VMware ESX environments across hosts, clusters, and resource pools enabling you to:
-
Predict and avoid costly performance degradations and downtime by properly allocating resources
-
Get more out of your existing VMware infrastructure, so that you can delay unnecessary purchases
-
Safely increase virtual machine (VM) densities to lower the cost per VM
-
Find available capacity to safely add new VMs
-
Identify your top resources consumers
-
Set alerts to take the necessary proactive measures to avoid problems altogether
