  • Overview


    The world we live in today increasingly relies on computers and the Internet to function. The IT infrastructure needed to support these technologies has to run continually to enable trade between companies, communication between people and dissemination of information.

    While the term data center may still evoke the image of an immaculate room housing a set of large computers, today’s data centers include more
    than just big computers. The gradual replacement of mainframes with distributed systems increases the size and complexity of the entire enterprise.

    IT management teams are faced with the challenge of maintaining enterprises that are both heterogeneous and geographically dispersed. The ability to remotely manage equipment is one of the most critical aspects of modern IT infrastructure management.

    This paper explains why efficient and cost-effective network management is critical to today's 24/7 businesses.
