How it works
We calculate a pressure score
Signals are summed and boosted when your next growth milestone is close, since pressure compounds near milestones.
Get a capacity action plan
The recommended actions match your pressure level, from cost review to urgent load testing and infrastructure planning.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the next milestone matter?
The same utilization trend is far more urgent if you expect a traffic spike in 2 months versus 18 months. The urgency boost reflects that timing without needing a full capacity model.
Does this replace infrastructure monitoring tools?
No. It's a fast, rule-based check using signals you already know. A dedicated monitoring or cost platform will track resource trends continuously and forecast automatically.
What should I do with a high-pressure score?
Start with load testing your highest-utilization systems to confirm the actual breaking point, then plan infrastructure upgrades before your next growth milestone hits.
