= Active IQ Unified Manager is a tool that enables you to define the performance and storage objectives for a workload using Performance Service Levels (PSLs). You can assign a PSL to a workload when initially creating the workload, or afterwards by editing the workload. The management and monitoring of storage resources are based on Service Level Objectives (SLOs), which are defined by service level agreements that are based on required performance and capacity. Active IQ Unified Manager provides a few predefined PSLs, such as Extreme Performance, Performance, and Value, and also allows you to create your own PSLs to meet your needs. You can also apply the PSLs to multiple clusters and workloads to ensure optimal performance and utilization of the underlying resources. References = Performance Service Levels, Managing Performance Service Levels

BlueXP tiering is a NetApp technology that enables you to free space on your on-premises NetApp ONTAP clusters by migrating inactive data to Amazon S3. BlueXP tiering is a data tiering service that automatically moves cold data from your on-premises ONTAP volumes to low-cost object storage in the cloud. BlueXP tiering uses a Connector, which is a virtual machine that runs in your AWS VPC or on your premises, to create and manage an S3 bucket for tiering. BlueXP tiering also provides data protection, encryption, and compression features to ensure the security and efficiency of your data. References = Tiering data from on-premises ONTAP clusters to Amazon S3 | NetApp Documentation, BlueXP Tiering | NetApp Cloud Central.

A hypervisor is a software layer that enables multiple operating systems to run on the same physical hardware by creating virtual machines (VMs) that are isolated from each other. A hypervisor abstracts the operating system from the underlying hardware, allowing for greater flexibility, efficiency, and scalability of the virtualized environment. NetApp supports several hypervisor platforms, such as VMware ESXi, KVM, and Hyper-V, and provides storage solutions that integrate with them. References = Storage virtualization overview, VMware hypervisor and hardware considerations, NetApp HCI Resources
