We?ve long held that solutions that can understand application interactions across all layers of

the infrastructure and bring sophisticated correlation engines to the table will pave the way to

the future of the next generation data center. Such tools are simply a key component of the

management layer required in an increasingly complex, dense, consolidated, virtualized, and

ever-changing data center. Today, BalancePoint, plugged into VMware?s vCenter management console, reaches well beyond any virtual or physical data center silo, and paints a picture of end to end infrastructure performance, tracing performance events, capturing changes, and correlating it all for total data center visibility.
