Tracking and Trending for Capacity Planning and Performance Analysis

This session covers the technicalities of simple linear Regression Analysis and the extension of this into multivariate analysis found in Time Series.

The approach is generally intuitive so that one can learn what is being said and what it means. You’ll see the principles of how-to and the evaluation of different regressions.

The examples used will generally be taken from system data (utilizations, rates).

We will look at the reasons for both tracking and trending along with the reasons why such activities can fail. The simpler examples will use EXCEL.
