The combination of Cisco's UCS Manager and Schneider Electric's DCIM solution provides Cisco UCS customers with an opportunity to bridge the gap between IT and Facilities, offer transparency across the two silos, and positively impact the rest of the organization – both in terms of efficiency, uptime and capex/opex costs. This is achieved by optimising the existing physical infrastructure capacities, thus reducing overprovisioning and improving the balance between supply and demand, resulting in continual availability and optimal energy efficiency.
