New Features and Enhancements

One of the most significant updates in this release is the addition of vSphere 5.0 with Continuous Performance Monitoring (CPM).

This feature can help organizations reduce their energy costs and meet their sustainability goals.

In addition to these new features, this update also includes several enhancements to existing functionality. For example, the vSphere client has been updated with a new user interface that provides easier access to key features and improved performance. The update also includes support for new hardware devices and updates to existing hardware compatibility lists.
