I feel like exponential smoothing is more about forecasting than monitoring, but I could be wrong.
TA

Lou 11 months ago
I remember practicing with rough-cut capacity planning in a similar question, and it seemed relevant for assessing overall capacity.

Lavelle 12 months ago
I think input/output control might be the right choice since it directly relates to monitoring loads, but I'm not entirely sure.
CE
Celestina 12 months ago
I'm a bit confused by the options. I know rough-cut capacity planning is used for high-level capacity analysis, but I'm not sure how the other techniques compare. I'll have to review my notes to decide.
