Challenges of Managing Virtual Environments

Enterprise IT infrastructures are being transformed into dynamic virtual infrastructures and private cloud platforms enabling increased agility, lower costs and higher service levels. Unfortunately many IT management tools and approaches were never designed for these new environments. Many traditional tools can’t keep up with the real-time changes that occur in virtual environments and as a result the information they provide is out-of-date, incomplete and unreliable. These legacy tools and approaches are ineffective for making operational decisions and real-time management of virtual environments due to the challenges of tool integration, data reconciliation and high-latency.
