The goal of systems management is to provide a way for administrators to standardize IT components so that waste and redundancy are made visible and can be eliminated. In either a centralized or distributed environment, an effective systems management process enables the IT infrastructure to operate efficiently on a day-to-day basis. Systems management can also refer to the class of software that automates the various processes associated with looking after organization's hardware and software assets. These include activities such as asset tracking, software versioning, performance measurement, availability monitoring, data backup, capacity planning, disaster recovery, and so on.
