> StruxureWare Operations – A second generation DCIM framework enabling customers to gain control of their day- to-day operations where capacity limitations, frequent changes, and availability are daily challenges for data center managers. StruxureWare Operations is a powerful tool for simulation through the creation of “what if” scenarios that demonstrate the impact of server placements on power and cooling.


> StruxureWare Central – A vendor-neutral software system that provides a unified view and analysis of the data center physical infrastructure. StruxureWare Central communicates with building, power, enterprise, and network management systems to ensure quality, and to enhance energy and cost efficiencies.


> Facility Power Monitoring – Monitors the facility and data center electrical infrastructure from the utility feed through to rack power. Core functions of this system include the ability to profile power and energy consumption and trends, characterize power quality events, and visually drill down from the overall view of the electrical network to the equipment level.


> Facility Cooling Monitoring – Monitors and automates the fully integrated environmental control system for the core facility, including the thermal energy plant, with specialized monitoring of the data center chilled water sub-system, including cooling towers, chillers, pumps, and computer room and rack air handlers.


Extended offer magnifi es cost savings. The extended StruxureWare for Data Centers offering delivers the “big picture” perspectives related to corporate energy efficiency objectives and the Schneider Electric maintenance and efficiency consulting services.


The extended offering includes the following components:


> Energy Dashboard – Key performance indicators and advanced analytics help manage energy in financial terms and provide unique insight into the impacts of efficiency planning and change on business and all energy assets.


> Remote Energy Monitoring – A Web-hosted application that allows users to understand how their organization uses energy. Data center staff can then take steps to reduce costs through implementing conservation measures, investing in more efficient equipment, or participating in new pricing or load curtailment programs.


> Remote Data Center Monitoring Services – This remote data center equipment monitoring service predicts, tracks, and remediates site problems in a timely and efficient manner. The service interprets events and activates the proper response mechanism with user-defined notification rules, including email or phone call.


The data center management software field should be redefined so that simplicity, efficiency, and reliability can be emphasized.
