My ideas: Planning

Showing P90, P95, P99 actions all at the same time.

Showing P90, P95, P99 actions all at the same time. If showing for all VM is too hard due to resource perspective, it is ok to run as "Plan" basis and show the result in a screen.

Add cluster data to Turbo Plans

Currently the plans in Turbo show host level. I would benefit from seeing cluster level information in the plans.

Plan migration of cloud workloads back to on-premise datacenter.

Turbonomic allows us to plan a move of on-prem workloads to cloud (Azure), but we want the ability to plan moves of cloud workloads back on-prem. We are maintaining on-prem resources to allow for bringing our servers home, but need to make sure th...

The plan function should include migration of SQL Managed Instances from on prem to the cloud.

These are very expensive entities - and the ability to estimate costs would be good. Also important, some customers use the exported plan as an input into a semi-automated migration process. So being able to include SQL machines in the planning fu...

Azure Savings Plan commitment planning

I would like to have the ability to create plans for Azure Savings Plan commitments based on my current workloads not covered by reserved instances that are running hourly pay go rates.

Allow temporary group creation within Plan function of the tool

Many times for running plans, I have to create a VM group here and a host group there. They all end up sitting in the environment indefinitely until I explicitly look for them for cleaning (being able to look for them by "Last Used" or "Last Updat...

What-if planing option to evaluate impact if a percentage of VMs upsize

Would like to be able to run a plan that evaluates cluster capacity if VMs in an automation hotadd policy were to upsize. Within the plan be able to on a slide basis evalutate if 10,20 etc. % were to consume the limit of the hot add policy. This w...

Plan improvements: Downloading all plan results

Turbonomic planning allows us to simulate scenarios to migrate workloads to different clusters to simulate how workloads could be supported on different node sizes. This is a workaround to having Turbo recommend what vertical size node would be be...

Plan results shall include all commodities (e.g. IOPS) relevant for the resulting sizing

When running a plan, especially a hardware refresh plan, you cannot see the reasoning for the resulting number of hosts if the reason is a commodity like IOPS not displayed in the plan results. Therefore, please display all commodities (e.g. IOPS)...

Plan Migration to show a cost comparison between migrating to the different cloud providers

Instead of a user creating 3 plans (one for each provider) and moving between dashboards to compare. A customer wanted to see a single dashboard comparing the possible migrations to all clouds to decide on the best one.
