Centralized View of Energy
Comprehensive insight of data center energy utilization
To achieve true energy efficiency and real cost reductions in the data center, enterprise management software needs to be integrated with your data center infrastructure and IT equipment. This integration requires standardized energy information and integration with application management software, asset management software, management databases, and building management systems. As you can see from the diagram, Sentilla Energy Manager integrates energy information from IT equipment as well as facilities, providing a comprehensive single view of the entire data center’s energy profile.
Integration allows you to pool all energy information in one place for a comprehensive view. It also brings together IT workload with energy consumption, identifying areas for improved performance, reduced cost, or mitigated risk. Find out where virtualization projects would be best suited, what equipment is unused or has residual computing capacity, and identify where energy and computing capacity are used.
Sentilla Energy Manager allows you to manage energy the same way that you manage other key assets (applications, servers, networking, storage, etc). Sentilla Energy Manager provides operators with extensive intelligence to regain control.
Energy Management meets IT Management:
-
Extend energy management capabilities to asset health and maintenance, workload scheduling and storage optimization.
-
Interface with enterprise management systems, giving you the ability to manage systems and reduce energy across the enterprise.
-
Compute utilization can be managed, correlated with energy costs and capacity, and measured against business needs. This gives control to IT managers to power down servers or keep business-critical applications available.
-
Correlate software applications and processes to facilities data to jointly optimize operations and manage a clear picture of the data center's operational efficiency and business impact.
