Summary
Just like Web services add complexity to the task of management, it also brings to the table a set of technologies that may simplify the task of management itself. By realizing a set of technologies for Web service description, discovery and invocation it has provided management community the capability to virtualize a wide array of network, system, application components. This has led to the application of Web services technology to the domain of grid computing and utility computing. Both these domains appear quite promising for the vision of Web services being used in management.
