Capacity Planning

Growth Models

The growth models for an Internet marketing site are the same as those for a corporate intranet site. Both include content striping and specialization. However, instead of separating the site’s content by organizational unit, it is useful to segregate content either by functionality (Web, e-mail, newsgroups, and so on) or by product line. A sports products company, for example, would probably list gear for summer sports on one set of pages, and gear for winter sports on another.
