UniPlan
UniPlan is a workload simulation and analytics product that delivers the tools and data needed to optimize configuration of expensive commercial applications in cluster or cloud computing environments.
With UniPlan, application users can:
- Simulate project workload
- Analyze "What-If" scenarios
- Precisely determine the impact of resources changes
(licenses, personnel, hardware, virtual machines, cloud resources)
You can’t afford to base system configuration or license purchase decisions on guesswork and intuition. You need data-driven scenario analysis to explore – and determine – the right actions to take. With UniPlan, you can investigate realistic scenarios to determine ideal resource allocation or license purchase decisions, in order to derive the greatest possible value from costly applications.

UniPlan simulates cluster or cloud workload and enables detailed scenario analyses – so you can answer questions like:
- If I reduce CPUs by 15%, will that impact the project deadline?
- I need to increase throughout – should I buy more CPUs or more licenses?
- Where are computing bottlenecks coming from?
- I’ve been asked to save 20% without impacting throughput – is that even possible?
Powered by WorkloadAnalyzer™ from Runtime Design Automation (RTDA), the only simulation-based workload analysis and compute farm/cluster planning tool, UniPlan takes historical workloads from existing tools like RTDA NetworkComputer, Sun Grid Engine, or Platform LSF and models a particular compute farm or cluster configuration to simulate workload over this model.
