The modern data centre is an extremely complex environment to manage. Multiple fabrics including Ethernet, Fibre Channel and SAS are demanded by multiple networks such as LAN and SAN and are often managed by different teams. The deployment of new technologies such as 10GbE, FCoE, server blades, virtualization, and cloud computing at to this complexity. On top of this are the SLAs, QoS agreements, reduced budgets amongst other business demands.
