The document discusses physical and virtual server management using Microsoft's System Center suite. It notes that nearly 50% of servers will be virtualized by 2011 and that virtualization without management is riskier than no virtualization. The System Center suite provides centralized management of physical and virtual servers through capabilities like virtual machine management, monitoring, backup/recovery, and configuration management. It also discusses how System Center enables treating physical and virtual servers equally and responding dynamically to issues rather than just receiving alerts. The suite helps optimize resources, increase agility, and provide end-to-end monitoring across heterogeneous environments through its various components.
