Forecast-less service capacity management
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method of managing capacity in a service-provider system in a forecast-less manner, the computer implemented method comprising;
- creating a software model of a physical service-provider system;
a processor storing the software model in memory;
establishing a parameter for running the software model with real-time metrics from the physical service-provider system as inputs to the software model;
in response to the parameter being met, running the software model using the real-time metrics from the physical service-provider system as inputs;
establishing a pre-determined action that is prescribed by a specific model output, wherein the pre-determined action adjusts capacity in the service-provider system; and
in response to the specific model output being output from the software model, executing the pre-determined action.

Abstract
A computer implemented method, system, and/or computer program product manages capacity in a service-provider system. A software model of a physical service-provider system is created and stored in memory. A parameter for running the software model with real-time metrics from the physical service-provider system as inputs to the software model is established. If the parameter is met, then the software model is run using the real-time metrics from the physical service-provider system as inputs. A pre-determined action, which adjusts capacity in the service-provider system and is prescribed by a specific model output, is established. If the specific model output, which resulted from using the real-time metrics from the physical service-provider system as inputs for running the software model, is output from the software model, then the pre-determined action is executed.
