Managing the capacity of your network infrastructure


As a Capacity Planner or network Administrator, you can use BMC Helix Continuous Optimization to configure, administer, and manage the capacity of your network infrastructure.

As illustrated in the flow diagram, the BMC Helix Continuous Optimization data source collects data from the network infrastructure resources. The collected data is transferred to BMC Helix Continuous Optimization where it is processed, and then displayed on the user interface. You can use the product functionalities to review, analyze, and manage the capacity of your network infrastructure resources.

BMC Helix Continuous Optimization enables you to collect and manage data for the network infrastructure elements.
