  1. “Just look (the average of usage)”:
    • This stage shows a simplistic view of usage based on rough averages.
    • The supply (green arrow) is generously provided based on this average usage.
    • Actual fluctuations in usage are not considered at this point.
  2. “More Details of Usages”:
    • Upon closer inspection, continuous variations in actual usage are discovered.
    • The red dotted circle highlights these subtle fluctuations.
    • At this stage, variability is recognized but not yet addressed.
  3. “Optimization”:
    • After recognizing the variability, optimization is attempted based on peak usage.
    • The dashed green arrow indicates the supply level set to meet maximum usage.
    • Light green arrows show excess supply when actual usage is lower.
  4. “Changes of usage”:
    • Over time, usage variability increases significantly.
    • The red dotted circle emphasizes this increased volatility.
  5. “Unefficient”:
    • This demonstrates how maintaining a constant supply based on peak usage becomes inefficient when faced with high variability.
    • The orange shaded area visualizes the large gap between actual usage and supply, indicating the degree of inefficiency.
  6. “Optimization”:
    • Finally, optimization is achieved through flexible supply that adapts to actual usage patterns.
    • The green line closely matching the orange line (usage) shows supply being adjusted in real-time to match usage.
    • This approach minimizes oversupply and efficiently responds to fluctuating demand.

This series illustrates the progression from a simplistic average-based view, through recognition of detailed usage patterns, to peak-based optimization, and finally to flexible supply optimization that matches real-time demand. It demonstrates the evolution towards a more efficient and responsive resource management approach.

Before & Optimization

From Claude with some prompting
This image illustrates the process of “Before & Optimization” in a system, divided into three main stages:

  1. Initial State:
    • Shows “Supply” and “Usage” components.
    • Demonstrates a stable supply flowing to usage.
    • The graph indicates supply maintaining slightly above usage.
  2. Intermediate Stage:
    • Introduces “Redundancy (High Availability)”.
    • An additional supply unit labeled “One More Ready” is added.
    • The “Stability” graph shows supply consistently higher than usage, with the note “Maintain Supply > Usage”.
  3. Final Optimization Stage:
    • The “Optimization” graph shows supply and usage being closely aligned.
    • Purple arrows indicate adjustments to match supply with usage.
    • Labeled “Goto Supply = Usage”, showing the goal of matching supply to usage.

Overall, this image depicts the progression from ensuring stable supply, through adding redundancy for increased stability, to finally optimizing the system by matching supply closely with usage. It demonstrates the process of maintaining system stability while improving efficiency.
