Clear Technologies Unveils Capacity Planning-as-a-Service

Clear Technologies, Inc., a provider of IT consulting, server, storage, and software products, unveils Capacity Planning-as-a-Service (CPaaS), a new service developped in partnership with Visual Storage Intelligence.

Digital transformation heightens the need for continuous storage capacity analysis for determining critical IT infrastructure, application and financial resource needs. The CPaaS solution provides on-demand, actionable insight into the utilization and performance of any storage environment. It also eliminates the costly risk of over-provisioning cloud storage. IT executives can ensure staff resources remain focused on normal workloads and suspend manual capacity planning. Paired with the human intelligence of fims’ storage experts, IT executives will be well equipped to confidently make decisions for provisioning on-prem and cloud storage capabilities, at scale.

“We’re committed to building a strong, service-oriented relationship with our customers. In some of our discussions, we noticed customers conducting manual capacity planning outside of normal business operations an utilizing outdated tools. With turnover, the skillset and intricate excel spreadsheets were left to team members without the knowledge or time to complete manual reporting. We identified a strong need for accurate, on-demand capacity planning to help these customers save money and maintain normal workloads,” said Phil Godwin, president and COO. “We’re excited to unveil the new CPaaS offering to ensure customers are optimizing their storage environment and making confident, data-driven decisions for the future.“

CPaaS Benefits:

• Proactive Analysis: Actualize storage capacity needs on-demand with one centralized tool. Make confident, data-driven decisions in a timely manner.
• Human Intelligence: Optimize storage capacity based on expert analysis and recommendations. With CPaaS, storage experts will factor in plans for acquisition, data migration or storage refresh.
• Operational Equity: Build a risk-free IT operations forecast by eliminating the financial pain of extended time and additional resources caused by manual capacity reporting.

“Developing the CPaaS solution enhances the capabilities of the Visual Storage Intelligence tool,” said Van Symons, Visual Storage Intelligence CTO. “We created Visual Storage Intelligence as a client-driven tool to continuously meet the needs of our clients’ storage environment. Capacity Planning is the future of storage optimization, and we are helping clients take a modern, proactive approach.“
