  2. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Electrical Review PowerOn Briefing You can’t save money until you know where you are spending it... An introduction to some of the benefits of DCIM AmitSingala 7 November 2013

  3. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk In today’s datacentre IT Managers need the system to pinpoint issues immediately.

  4. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Many resources to balance in a modern Data Centre

  5. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk “When will you run out of capacities and how do you know?” Is critical information visible and transparent all the time? How quickly do you know the impact of a Data Centre event?

  6. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Monitoring & Control "When & who gets notified if a UPS/Cooling Unit or Server goes down?

  7. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk In the past only very basic information available.

  8. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Today lots of data with DCIM providing vital monitoring and management.

  9. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk But weneed a bridge between IT & Facilities!

  10. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Business Value Applications Virtual Machines Virtualisation Management Hypervisor DEMANDSUPPLY IT Hardware DEMANDSUPPLY Data Centre Infrastructure Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM) Building Utility

  11. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Good News! DCIM provides that bridge.

  12. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Monitoring & Control Data center infrastructure management (DCIM) systems collect and manage data about a data center’s assets, resource use and operational status throughoutthe data center lifecycle. This information is then distributed, integrated, analyzed and applied in ways that help managers meet business and service-oriented goals and optimize the data center’s performance Physical Functional Process • Monitoring and alarming • Automation and control • Modeling and simulation • Software Services • Integrations • Power system • Cooling system • IT space • Security • integrations • Asset management • Availability management • Capacity management • Change management • Crisis management • Financial management • Integrations

  13. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Fits industry need to improve availibility & efficiency simultaneously ... DCIM in action Act Optimise for efficiency Fix expected failures Build or buy capacity Analyse Report Collect data

  14. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk DCIM Maturity Model • Level 5: Self optimizing, autonomic Integrated software adjusts datacenter behavior and resource use according to rules and data and service requirements 0% Level 4: Optimizing Multiple IT and infrastructure subsystems integrated; data models used for prediction, service management, multiple views, optimizing in near real time <5% • Level 3: Proactive Datacenter equipment characteristics, location and operational status tracked. Energy and environmental data used to reduce risks, waste 10% 80% Level 2: Reactive Software installed to monitor environment and equipment power use. Ability to adjust cooling to demand • Level 1: Basic No integration; basic monitoring supplied with equipment. Health and safety 100%

  15. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Top Data Centre Challenges Availability/Downtime 75% of downtime due to human error1 Rising Energy Costs 40% of the total data center budget2 Poor Capacity Utilization Most data centers are running out of floor space2 Inefficient Business Process Weeks to months per task3 Rick Schuknecht, The 451 Group Uptime Institute, June 2011 “How to Maximize the Use of Your Data Center Floor Space,” Gartner, September 2011 “How Large Enterprises Approach IT Infrastructure Consolidation,” Forrester Research, December 2007

  16. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk DCIM as a facility tool… • Main concerns of datacentre management • • Ensure continuity of service • • Be efficient/reduce capex/opex • • Meet immediate capacity needs

  17. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Project Drivers for DCIM Adoption Defer New Data Center Build Outs Migration and Consolidation Projects Improve Operational Excellence and Optimize Power, Cooling & Space Reduce Downtime and Catastrophic Failure Comply with Impending Global Regulatory Legislation

  18. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk Too much data in siloed systems

  19. Assess > Plan > Deliver > Sustain on365.co.uk DCIM becomes the centrepiece for operational efficiency
