Athene predicts service levels and resource demands. Athene makes it easy to answer "what-if" questions about the effects of changes in workload volumes, new applications and system management strategies for single real and virtual servers and for Client-Server systems.

Models are generated from the data held in the Performance Database. A scenario facility enables you to define the way in which configurations and workloads will

change. The resulting model is solved in a matter of seconds. The results are displayed using a powerful graphical reporter that focuses attention on current or potential performance problems.

• Evaluates the effect of changes in workload on end user service levels
• Predicts the effect of hardware upgrades and other configuration changes
• Identifies system bottlenecks
• Predicts resource utilization and response times
• Reports results by device and key elements of the workload
• Solves models in seconds.
