Even you are using cloud computing, you want to know how exactly your consumption will be billed. Furthermore, if you are build Private Cloud you should take care about capacity planning on your datacentre. This article will cover several steps to do capacity planning on Web server only
Workload Capacity Planning Step
Workload capacity planning discuss about what we expect for our web server.
Workload Characteristics | Value |

Average RPS at peak time | |
Total number of unique users per day | |
Average daily concurrent users | |
Peak concurrent users at peak time | |
Total number of requests per day | |
Expected workload distribution | No. of Requests per day | % |
