In a blog post, Keven Remde summarizes Microsoft’s new term “System Center”. Basically, it encompasses all Microsoft products to manage Windows systems in a corporate network. There is an official Microsoft page offering more detailed information, although, most of the text there is just marketing stuff.

“System Center” includes these disciplines:

• Operations management
• Change management
• Configuration management
• Release management
• Asset management
• Data protection management
• Problem management
• Capacity management
• Incident management

Keven added another one: “Waste management”. I wonder what he had in mind with this. I first thought that maybe Microsoft will offer a tool that helps you to get rid of all the useless files in your network that accumulated over the years. I really could use such a tool. But, he was only joking.
