2 Data Center Infrastructure Management (D.C.I.M.) Enterprise-class Data Center Software Manage & monitor critical infrastructure by integrating facilities and IT operations with centralized data collection providing accurate, real-time information in a useful and meaningful way. Optimized performance, capacity and availability by 1. Enabling rapid deployment and phased expansion; 2. Inform & plan to make business decision; 3. Impact on the organization and personnel is minimized.

3 Integration of Facilities & IT Operations Handles All Equipment Facilities : Underneath the floor Along the walls Outside the data center All the way to the power plant. (Utility Meter, Diesel Tanks, Back-up Generators) IT : Servers, routers, etc (BMS/BAS, EPMS, SCADA, Asset Management )

4 Comprehensive IT & Facilities Monitoring Environmental IT Network Equipment Electrical System CRAH & CRAC Systems Plumbing & Piping Systems Fire & Security Systems Energy Efficiency Integrates data from Building Management System and Power Monitoring Systems. Monitors every critical point in a data center: IT equipment, environment, mechanical devices, electrical components and plumbing systems. 4

5 DCIM Solution DCIM solution integrates and monitors: 1. power usage 2. circuit balancing 3. over current conditions 4. phase imbalance 5. over and under temperature conditions 6. alarms on any device or system which is outside predefined, user configurable thresholds.

6 D.C.I.M. DCIM provides all the information you need to manage your data center efficiently 1. Real-time, single panel view of all your critical systems 2. One data center or many data centers around the world. 3. With no guesswork out of uptime and capacity planning in deploying new assets 4. Delay or put off an expensive build-out or new construction 5. Real-time view of power & cooling systems

7 D.C.I.M. Deployment o Enterprise & Internet Data Centers o Multi-Tenant Data Centers, Co-Location (COLO) or Third-party Managed Data Centers

8 Data Center Issues 1. Increasing complexity and skyrocketing energy demand & costs. 2. Tight budgets & capital expenditure limitations. 3. Running out of capacity 4. Lack of space & energy to run the facilities.

9 What D.C.I.M. does? Provides real-time data and reports to Facilities, IT, IT Ops and C-suites Produces meaningful, actionable reports, alerts, business intelligence and capacity planning Optimize energy, space, cooling and IT Operations

10 Out-of-the-box Functionality Gather all the data required The data are normalized, organized, easy-to-read, useful and actionable All this data is aggregated and presented in realtime, over an easy-to-read web-based dashboard. Turning data into actionable information

11 o - D.C.I.M. DCIM present data in graphic form, create trend logs of critical points, calculate efficiency and unused capacity, make recommendations regarding changes in system architecture which help improve performance and increase efficiency. We can utilize to make informed decisions and improve energy efficiency, maximize usage of available space, power and cooling capacity, and increase uptime.

12 D.C.I.M. DCIM Is 100% browser-based 1. There is no additional software or thin client 2. It is non-proprietary and vendor-neutral 3. It complies with security standard User Access Login 1. Multiple User Access Login 2. Partition User Access Login It s accessible by approved personnel from anywhere, at anytime.

17 Benefits 1. Achieving Energy Efficiency 2. Effective Thermal Management 3. Reducing OpEx with Infrastructure Visibility 4. Simplifying IT Operations 5. Ensuring Reliability

18 Benefits Plus: 1. CapEx deferrals 2. Delaying or eliminating new data center build-out or expansions 3. Capacity planning optimize use of: Space, Power & Cooling

19 Direct Value Direct Value actual cost reductions that can be measured and quantified Energy cost reductions Cooling cost reductions Operation cost reduction

20 Indirect Value Indirect Value improvements that directly affect business profitability but that are difficult to attribute to DCIM processes Improved reliability Simplified management processes Compliance achievement

21 Effective Thermal Management Real-time temperature information enables both quick correction, and the ability to raise ambient temperatures.

22 Effective Thermal Management PUE Power Usage Effectiveness PUE= Total Facility Power/IT Equipment Power o Standard measurement of the effectiveness of the environment o Thermal conditions are the single largest factor affecting PUE o The average data center PUE is 2.5 o The ideal PUE is 1.0, common target is 1.6 o Accuracy as a performance indicator is dependent on mechanical load being static

23 Achieving Energy Efficiency How to reduce energy consumption Consolidation Hardware Upgrades Virtualization Power State Management CPU Power Throttling (Holistic monitoring needed for any of these to be effective and safe.)

24 Achieving Energy Efficiency These are the following server energy reduction initiatives your company can implement. Consolidated servers Replaced Hardware Virtualization Power State Management CPU power throttling Other (Please specify) 8% 16% 32% 73% 69% 79% 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100%

25 Ways To Reduce Power Consumption based on analysis of DCIM data: Identifying server consolidation opportunities Identifying under-utilized PDUs, UPSs and loading them so they operate in their most efficient manner Identifying surplus PDUs, UPSs which can be decommissioned Identifying unused orphan servers and turning them off or disposing of them

26 Ways To Reduce Power Consumption based on analysis of DCIM data: Identifying the major contributors to high PUEs (often, legacy PDUs, UPSs, etc.) in the power chain for potential replacement or tune-up Consolidation of multiple data centers into fewer DCIM identifies which data centers are best done away with, and which ones are best-positioned to receive consolidation.
