Clustered Multiprocessing (CMP) technology introduced by F5 in 2008 enabled organizations to consolidate physical, purpose-built resources into a single virtual entity that provides near 1:1 scaling of performance by simply adding or upgrading resource blades. Virtual Clustered Multiprocessing (vCMP), the industry's first purpose-built hypervisor, completes this functionality by allowing administrators to completely segment those resources into independent, virtual ADCs.
