As virtual environments scale, understanding how each virtual machine impacts the underlying infrastructure becomes a necessity for efficient data center design and timely issue diagnosis. Capturing this information, however, typically requires complex and costly manual processes. These issues are often particularly challenging across the network, generating a “fog” that hides data congestion and impedes identifying a resolution.

As a result, even small data centers must deploy many servers, each operating at just 5–15 percent of capacity—highly inefficient by any standard.
