Trend implications on data center operationsHow DCIM can help customers

Issues in power, space, cooling, and uptime impede innovation

…consequences to the business31% 30% 27% 26%

Delay inapplicationrollouts

Disrupted ability toprovide service tocustomers

Forced to spendunplannedOPEX budget

Need to roll backan applicationdeployment

84%of datacenters had issues with power, spaceand cooling capacity, assets, and uptime thatnegatively impacted business operations

Content adopted from: IDC Global DCIM Survey, 2012


Possibilities to improve data center operationsHow DCIM can help customer

Three Commonly-Cited Reasons things go wrong in the datacenter

Inconsistent datacenter information of datacenters do nothave a standard set ofmanagement tools

63%1

Inconsistent datacenter maturity of datacenter managersconsider their data-centers to be inefficient oronly moderately efficient

57%3

Businesses have datacenters with varying maturity levels

Divided datacenter operations of enterprises have ITand facilities living inseparate organizations

58%2

Responsibility for a wide range of operations is splitbetween IT, facilities, and other groups

5 Roadmap, outlook


Datacenter Clarity LC – dashboardHow can I plan capacity and run forecast scenarios?

Lack of visibility for key-drivers,power / cooling / u-space / floorspace.

Single pane of glass,monitor trends to forecastcapacity. Get the factsand figures at yourfingertips.

Reduce overall costs duefull visibility and capacityplanning.→ increase IT revenuewith same staff

Reduce time, due to realtime values reported in aDashboard. Fasterdecisions based on facts.

ü Plan your capacities based on facts and figures!

Challenge Benefit


Datacenter Clarity LC – asset managementHow long would it take me to find a server?

Lack of transparency about mygrey room and white spaceassets.

Improve global efficiencyand collaboration→ increase IT revenuewith same staff.

Reduce overall costs dueto non value addedactivities→ increase IT revenuewith same staff

Reduce wasted timelooking for information→ increase IT revenuewith same staff

ü 40% to 60% reduction of time searching for assets!

Challenge Benefit


Datacenter Clarity LC – network management - web clientHow can my network team add connections on the fly?

Dependency on thick clients anddesktop to operate the DCIMSystem on the fly.

Web client is cross-browser and cross-devicecompatible (includingtablets), with no local footprint.

Reduce overall costs dueto non value addedactivities→ increase IT revenuewith same staff

Reduce time, due toadding connections onthe fly.→ increase IT revenuewith same staff

ü Be faster, thanks to an intuitive web client!

Challenge Benefit


Datacenter Clarity LC – workflowHow can I know if the server exchange was done?

Lack of transparency and tools toaddress multiple teams forexecution.

Improve deliverablesquality and consistency.

Enable project decisionsbased on up-to-dateinformation andavoid overruns.

Reduce wasted timesearching and compilinginformation for projectexecution.

ü Project cost savings and IT service revenue increase

Challenge Benefit


Datacenter Clarity LC – alarm managementHow can I ensure operation is pro-active for alarms?

Having unreliable alarms orseeking them or even guessing.Sometimes physical inspectionon site.

Avoid damages ordowntime, due to pre-warnings and alarms.

Reduce OpEx due to apro-active alarm handling.

Reduce time, due tomonitoring all alarms andrun pro-active scenarios.

ü Avoid downtime, due to pro-active operation!

Challenge Benefit


Datacenter Clarity LC – heatmapHow can I save energy and ensure enough cooling?

Unable to detect hot spots andsee cold air volume. What ifscenarios can’t be performed.

Visualization of hot spotsperformed in a heat mapor Computational FluidDynamics (CFD)simulation.

Safe money, by using coldair where it should be.Avoid OpEx due tooverheated and damagedassets.

Reduce wasted timecaused by unnecessaryasset replacements.

ü What if planning, based on CFD calculation!

Challenge Benefit
