System and method for analyzing computing system resources

It has been recognized that to accurately measure the required resource capacity of computing systems such as servers, various relevant factors should be considered, since the capacity may be excess or insufficient. This measurement can be reflected by the ratio of the theoretical minimum server capacity required relative to the actual server capacity provisioned, hereinafter also referred to as the "fully loaded utilization", which can be expressed in various ways, including as a percentage or an efficiency index or other number or value.
