VM Performance Monitoring
VM Performance Monitoring involves the continuous observation and analysis of various metrics related to the performance of virtual machines (VMs) within a virtualized environment. Introduced alongside the proliferation of virtualization technologies, performance monitoring tools gather data on key indicators such as CPU usage, memory utilization, disk I/O, network throughput, and latency to assess the health and efficiency of VMs and the underlying infrastructure. By monitoring these metrics, administrators can identify performance bottlenecks, predict capacity requirements, troubleshoot issues, and optimize resource allocation to ensure optimal performance and user experience. Performance monitoring solutions often offer real-time dashboards, historical reporting, and alerting mechanisms to facilitate proactive management and maintenance of virtualized environments.
