Company
Modius® is the leading provider of performance management software for real-time facilities infrastructure monitoring. The solution enables IT and facilities to work collaboratively to lower energy costs, expand capacity, and improve availability of IT services. The Modius flagship product OpenData® monitors all power distribution, cooling and environmental sensor equipment from a single console, providing comprehensive operational intelligence for unified performance analysis and metrics.
Modius provides solutions for:
- Data Center Monitoring for Unified Infrastructure Alarming
- Data Center Analysis for Capacity & Efficiency Optimization
- Data Center Management for Dynamic Cooling Automation
- Data Center Management for IT Load Allocation in Virtualization & Cloud Environments
For the first time in the industry, Modius provides unified performance analysis for both IT and Facilities via a low-cost, easy-to-install, turnkey software package. Modius OpenData captures comprehensive power and environmental intelligence in real-time across a distributed network of facilities from a single console, including all data centers, server closets, call centers and mechanical yards.
Product
Modius® provides an end-to-end monitoring and measurement solution for the physical layer of data centers, call centers, and server rooms. Modius captures and stores health and energy-consumption data from a broad range of site infrastructure devices (including power & cooling devices and environmental sensors) and combines it with energy-demand data from all critical IT equipment.
Through this single, comprehensive measurement system, Modius enables you to:
- Lower data center operational costs by 20-30% through improved energy efficiency
- Extend the useful life of data centers and other compute centers by increasing overall capacity by up to 40%
- Prevent downtime or system failure with unified infrastructure monitoring for all centeralized and remote sites through a single console
Modius is built upon a revolutionary middleware, called OpenData®, which continuously monitors and measures any device in a critical facility. Modius works across a broad array of equipment types, vendors, and different communication protocols (whether standards-based or proprietary, network-enabled or serial). Modius also works across remote geographical locations, allowing you to transport data in a secure format beyond the firewall and then aggregate at one location.
Modius allows IT and Facility engineers to work together to improve the overall availability, capacity, and efficiency of their critical facilities. By providing real-time dashboard views, long-term trend reporting, and diagnostic analysis, the solution allows IT and Facilities to benchmark current performance and track the effectiveness of multiple improvement projects and green initiatives.
