The widespread availability of high-speed broadband networks has seen applications and web sites move into the Cloud. This use of a cloud-based infrastructure means there is no local infrastructure to purchase, manage, secure, or upgrade. The virtualized data center, whether within the enterprise or located at a cloud service provider, must be properly provisioned in order to provide the necessary functions and performanceof cloud-based applications.

With convergence, fewer hardware resources deliver multiple capabilities and host multiple workloads.Monitoring these “anytime-anyplace” workloads creates a resource challenge, as there are a limited number of network access points.
