How much power, cooling, and space do you have in your data center?

Are you looking for a tool that Facilities and IT can use?

"IT has the need to manage the racks so when Facilities takes down services, they know what is effected. The tool will also help them know what resources are available - power, space, and network".

What are the obstacles/challenges of Data Center Infrastructure Management?

See a DEMO of how Liebert/Emerson has integrated server management and control and cooling/power to optimize your Data Center performance through Trellis at DVL on May 9 or 10.

Get prepared for the top 10 Data Center surprises at DVL

Emerson released a list of 10 common surprises for data center and IT managers and offered tips on how to be prepared for them. The list, released at AFCOM Data Center World Spring, includes information on a surprising cause of data center downtime, what data center managers might not know about that next server refresh, and the growing trend sneaking up on virtually every IT manager.

“When you are a data center or IT manager, very few things are more unsettling than the unexpected,” said Peter Panfil, vice president of global power, Emerson Network Power. “We hope this list helps IT professionals better anticipate these issues and prepares them with the appropriate technologies, solutions and best practices.”

Will you be using a DCIM solution within 2 years?

While many management organizations have already invested in technology resources (people, processes and tools) to manage data center infrastructure, critical gaps still remain in the physical infrastructure, virtual infrastructure and IT workloads. The Trellis platform provides a fundamentally new perspective on managing the entire data center in that it recognizes:

The importance of real-time data to understand the true capacity of available infrastructure
The criticality of interdependencies between logical and physical layers
The need for holistic management capabilities and visibility of IT and physical infrastructures
The need for more powerful management tools that offer a rich, visual view of the infrastructure and can guide design and change management
