Networking management tools: Keeping pace with change?

If the only constant is change, that's never been more true in the network industry than it is today. Networking management tools -- and network managers -- have to keep pace.

New technologies like cloud and virtualization services are emerging as challenges to network management. As enterprises shift from tried-and-true networking management tools and their capabilities, issues such as visibility take on greater weight.

Visibility isn't the only networking concern; the costs connected to network outages can be significant, and enterprises need to follow some standard best practices to prevent disastrous downtime. This special edition of Network Evolution explores how the latest networking management tools are helping IT pros maximize uptime and gain insights into network behavior. Read one network engineer's approach to maintaining performance in this issue, as well.
