in virtual servers. IT organizations are also finding even with consolidation of their underlying physical servers with virtualization, data centers are continuing to need to scale-out their physical
server resources. All of this growth and change is creating significant complexity that is putting more focus on the management tools that help keep all of these physical and virtual systems
