ITPEC FE Morning April 2023 — Question 57 of 80
In capacity management, there are several analysis techniques. Trend analysis examines the chronological usage of a specific resource over time to identify patterns and predict future usage changes.
The other options describe different capacity management techniques:
Why not others:
- (a) — describes baseline modeling, which creates a model reflecting current performance as the first phase
- (b) — describes simulation, which generates simulated transactions to predict response time and throughput
- (d) — describes analytical modeling, which uses mathematical techniques like queueing theory to predict performance
Key rule: Trend analysis = historical data over time → predict future demand. Think "trend line on a graph."
