DCiM with Facial Recognition!

Below is an excerpt from a recent Communication from Greg Stover, NER’s Senior VP and Data Center Efficiency Expert. We would like to hear your thoughts on DCiM and where it is on your radar.

EMERSON/LIEBERT/AVOCENT NEWS:

Trellis Power System Manager (PSM) now gives deeper visualization of the power system, its utilization, and dependencies. View the data center the way that an electrical engineer looks at the data center. Users can see the complete power chain from the grid to the rack via a dynamic one-line diagram. PSM lets users document the complete power system, view capacity utilization in real-time and forecast energy consumption.

Trellis Mobile Suite App/Module adds capabilities that greatly enhance management on the floor via mobile device (iPAD/tablets etc). The app significantly simplifies inventory management; especially the process of getting the data into the tool. This unique and innovative technology reads barcodes and even has facial recognition type capabilities to identify servers for you (yes really)! Now you can take Trellis anywhere 7/24/365!
