Notas do Editor
- Who are we? Viridity Software is the leader in Data Center Infrastructure Management Software. Our software connects equipment utilization and business value to power consumption in the data center.Customers are finding time to value in hours, not months.And, because we are a software solution, there is no additional hardware or agents required.
- Achieved through the implementation of specialized software, or hardware and sensors, DCIM will enable a common, real-time monitoring and management platform for all interdependent systems across IT and facility infrastructures.
- Treshembelish with history of physical monitoring and IT capacity (lack of insight)
- System configuration and usage are clearly the determining factors in power consumption, and their financial impact requires some scrutiny. Understanding the average and peak utilization ranges of servers and racks is critical in determining which systems are the most expensive to run. Their cost may have little to do with their age.
- You’re convinced you want to measure efficiency, where do you start? There are essentially two philosophies on this, we will call them bottom up and top down.
- The bottom up approach is the dominant approach in the market.
- It starts at the Panel and measures all the energy enter into the Datacenter
- It then moves from the panel to the rack.
- Without knowing what is happening at the server level you have a room full of questions marks making it difficult to optimize for energy efficiency, resource allocation.
- You’re convinced you want to measure efficiency, where do you start? There are essentially two philosophies on this, we will call them bottom up and top down.
