Capacity Management

Capacity Management in IT ensures that an organization’s IT infrastructure has the right resources available to meet current and future business needs. It involves planning, monitoring, and adjusting computing resources such as servers, storage, and network bandwidth to handle workloads efficiently.

This process balances performance and cost by matching supply with demand. Capacity Management helps prevent overloading systems or wasting money on unused technology. It is often part of IT Service Management (ITSM) and works closely with other areas, such as performance monitoring, demand forecasting, and incident response.
