- Developing capacity planning process from scratch. The bank instute did have any capacity planning process and I had the opportunity to develop for the bank a full process in capacity planning that was covering several pillers like: Storage, Physical Servers, Virtual Servers (VMware and AIX), Multiple kind of OS: Windows Servers (2003,2008,2012) and Linux OS (RedHat) and Unix (AIX), Networking (Switches). Within the Process I develop for the bank my responsibility was to write from scratch capacity planning documentations and flow diagrams, covering inventory, utilization and action reports. The process was involving developing custom reports made by Monitoring software like VMware vRealize Operation Manager and also developing code (scripting) that I develop from scratch in languages like: PowerCLI / PowerShell / JavaScript / Bash Shell / Python. As part of the process in kickoff of Capacity Planing process in the bank I was requitred to meet with many stakeholders and PMOs in the bank and create Action items for each stakeholder person. Moreover, as part of the capacity planning intiative that I have created for the bank I was developing many Capacity Planing reports for each domain that was based on Pre-Defined KPIs and metrics that me and the stakeholders in bank were defining earlier in the meetings. The process which I developed for bank in last was saving huge budget for the bank and was resulting in understanding what are the IT resources required for the bank and whether or not the current capacity that the bank has is enough to support the demand.
