The capacity planning dashboard shows both realtime use and predicted future use in key metrics of memory, storage and CPU use over a pre-defined period. Choose to show this across the entire appliance (all Tenants and Clouds) or scoped to just a single Tenant or a single Cloud. This can help to plan for future hardware needs, plan for changing public Cloud spend, or identify over/under utilization of certain resources.

## Filters

Leave unfiltered to show data across all Tenants and Clouds. Optionally choose to filter down to all Clouds in one specific Tenant or a single Cloud. The trend line predicts future use of resources based on recent past utilization.
