The modular monitoring system is a fundamental tool for monitoring and controlling the Non-IT infrastructure of a data center, evaluating operational parameters, and ensuring SLA compliance.
The monitoring system is optimized for data centers with a focus on the needs of data center operators, data center management, and customers of colocation data centers.
The system is modular and scalable, enabling deployment from a small server room with a few racks to large-scale deployment in a Tier IV data center with more than 1000 m² and hundreds of racks.
Key Features:
Data Center Operations:
• Immediate identification of issues – alarms with response time in seconds
• Real-time data monitoring – selected metrics collected with a 1-second sample rate
• Monitoring of SLA parameters – customer, supplier
• Advanced alarm system and redundancy evaluation
• Online and historical analysis of data from monitored devices and systems
Visualizations:
• Overview screens and systems
• Schematics with graphic highlights of energy flows
• Floor plans focusing on monitored technology
• Graphic overview of the IT hall
• Ability to control Non-IT devices from a single point
• Logging of all critical events
Data Center Management:
Monitoring and evaluation of:
• IT consumption at the rack or server level
• Non-IT consumption – total, system, device
• PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) and efficiency of cooling and UPS systems
• Compliance with customer and supplier SLAs
Advanced Reporting:
• Standard and custom reports
• Robust base built on Microsoft Visual Report Studio
Colocation Data Center Customer:
Monitoring and ensuring SLA compliance:
• Electrical power supply
• Temperature and humidity according to ASHRAE 2010
• Power consumption at the rack or server level
• Ability to monitor their part of the infrastructure online:
◦ Visualizations
◦ Online alarms and historical events
◦ SNMP trap notifications, email
◦ Reporting – consumption and SLA compliance
Other Features:
• Modular and scalable system
• Flexible customization to customer requirements
• Built on a standard industrial SCADA system
• Redundant hardware and communication infrastructure
• High system availability, application redundancy
• Support for multi-monitor mode – more than 8 monitors with 4k resolution
• Access to parts and system functionality based on user permissions
