In today’s data centers, three trends drive the need for new approaches to the management of IT systems: the expectation for always-on IT services, rapidly growing infrastructure, and limited IT budgets.
While any one of these trends creates challenges for your IT team, the combination of them makes it clear that the status quo is no longer acceptable when it comes to managing your IT systems. To meet the new expectations for your IT organization, you need to think about new ways of doing things.
That’s the idea behind VMware® vSphere® with Operations Management™. It combines the capabilities of the world’s most trusted virtualization platform with new tools for managing and optimizing your IT environment.
Specifically, vSphere with Operations Management gives you three essential keys for meeting the high expectations for IT in the era of the always-on business:
- Tools to enhance performance monitoring and accelerate troubleshooting so you can better meet your service level agreements
- Tools to optimize use of your current capacity to increase ROI and reduce the need to buy new hardware
- Tools to simplify backup and replication to improve system availability and business continuity
Years ago, you would have had to buy several products to gain all of these capabilities. Today, you can get them all in a single package based on a virtualization platform you know and trust.
