Primary challenges of facility management include providing power and cooling, ensuring uninterrupted service and monitoring the environmental conditions in the data center.
NetZoom® provides complete visibility into data center facility infrastructure. NetZoom is powered by Intel DCM for alerts, alarms and real time monitoring of power, temperature, PDU and UPS health. NetZoom also gathers environment data from sensors and power metrics directly from intelligent PDUs.
NetZoom provides a top-down look at the dependencies and relationships to provide insight into the inner workings of data center infrastructure for effective management and improved efficiencies.
Historical analytics combined with real-time threshold-based monitoring enables a predictive and proactive approach to preventing downtime.
Power Management
With NetZoom, Facility Managers can manage facility power by
- Tracking and balancing the power load throughout the entire power chain
- Validating power redundancy
- Monitoring the Health of PDUs and UPSs
Power Monitoring
Understand the real-time power load, trends, and capacity at all levels of the infrastructure.
NetZoom harnesses intelligent power strips, Smart, Metered, Switched and Monitored PDUs to get power consumption metrics for threshold monitoring, balancing power and planning Add and Moves. Power Monitoring helps identify underutilized servers and ghost servers which can be eliminated to reduce power consumption.
Data Center Cooling
Temperature is measured throughout the data center. Users can use impact analysis to know which racks and devices are affected by a cooling event.
Interactive 3D View
Real-time data can be viewed interactively in 3D. Choose the real-time capacity values to display Power, Temperature, Space.
Physical Security
NetZoom enhances data center physical security by Monitoring the environment uses IP Cameras. Users can View live streaming and Record video from multiple cameras simultaneously.
Use NetZoom to Manage Data Center Facility Capacity
Manage data center facility capacity proactively instead of reactively to reduce costs and improve uptime. NetZoom helps users to meet the facility capacity challenges including:
- Balancing and Recovering stranded capacity
- Reducing space fragmentation
- Reducing over-provisioning of power
- Monitoring PUE and DCiE
- Verifying power load and redundancy throughout the data center
- Predicting when the data center may run out of space, power or cooling
