When conducting performance capacity planning, it is acceptable to solely base future resource requirements on immediate hardware and software needs without considering trend analysis and user density.
This statement is false because performance capacity planning should encompass not only the immediate hardware and software requirements but also take into account trend analysis, user density, and other factors such as system load and business needs. Trend analysis involves examining baselines, patterns, and anomalies to predict future demands. Failing to consider these aspects can lead to under or overprovisioning of resources, affecting performance and cost.
